About me

Location Severn, Maryland, United States
Introduction More than just a high school English teacher, I write about my life's two great loves: my family and the English language.
Interests Time with Matt and Barley; correcting grammatical errors on signs; hiking; camping; trying new recipes; visiting obscure tourist destinations (hello, world's biggest ball of twine and Sonny Bono Memorial Park); getting lost in museums; travelling; buying new shoes on clearance; writing, writing, writing
Favorite Movies Wag the Dog, Waking Ned Divine, Waiting for Guffman, Little Miss Sunshine, Elf (but only in December), Juno
Favorite Music Rilo Kiley, The Decemberists, CCR, Bob Dylan (aka Robert Allen Zimmerman from Hibbing, Minnesota, thank you very much), Brenda Weiler, Dar Williams, The Concordian soundtrack
Favorite Books The Great Gatsby, To Kill a Mockingbird, The Omnivore's Dilemma, I'm a Stranger Here Myself, The Importance of Being Earnest (yes, I know it's technically a play)

If my whole body were a hot air balloon, I'd eat nothing but spicy food! What's the point of being a hot air balloon if you can't float around all the time? What a silly question.
