People who get me know this... I am sarcastic. I am also a genius, charming, dashing, witty, and super-attractive with a fashion sense that is wonderfully ridiculous. !

My career path... Psychology & Creative Writing, double major. 2 Master's ("if you build it, they will come"), and a PhD for dessert. !

My spirituality... Zen Buddhism. Here and now, nothing else matters. It's more difficult than you think. !

My relationship status... Married !

My relationship saga... Ever seen The Lord of the Rings trilogy? It was like that-long and drawn out. My husband is bad-ass. I even talked him into a mohawk this spring, huzzah! !

My political leanings... far left !

My political views... Dennis Kucinich *should* be our president. Obama did not use "covert hypnosis techniques" to get votes; he has excellent public speaking skills, which anybody can learn in Communication 105, a required course, available at your local community college. I am telepathically linked to Noam Chomsky. !

Proudest thing I ever did... Eddie Izzard's autograph is tattooed on my arm. So that's pretty cool. Interning for the now legendary alt/rock dj, Andyman (RIP), with CD101, @102.5FM. I am one of the luckiest people on Earth. I miss you so much, Andyman. !

Best time I ever had... Snorkeling in Mexico on my honeymoon, volunteering last X-Mas for a children's fundraiser, finally experiencing Life. Being an intern for one of the last brilliant dj's who transformed alternative radio, Andyman Davis of CD101 @102.5FM. !

Worst time I ever had... Senior year of high school. 2009. Except for the college part, Tina the Magnificent, my baby Cleveland, and the wonderful hubby. The recent death of my boss hurt more than I ever could've imagined. !

What drives me crazy... People who form their opinions without being informed. Bad grammar. Being ignored. !

What makes me glad to be alive... High levels of serotonin, dopamine, acytocholine, etc. (all the other happy ones), minus any psychosis or Parkinson's, please. !

I believe this... Instead of looking up and seeing Heaven and its endless possibilities and saying "that must be God" we looked up and saw the Universe and its endless possibilities and thought the Universe has made us. Yep. But the rest is up to us. -Wayne Coyne !

My ethnicity as others define it... Caucasian, European, European-American !
