| Introduction | After years of letting school and work devour my positive energy, I left "the agency" and decided to re-claim my life in 2006. Family and friends first; my passions second; everything else a distant third. I love to run on trails...the longer the better. When I was younger, I didn't like running at all, but now that I know I can do it, I want to run 100-mile races. Hopefully by 2008! If the decision was mine, I'd make beer and coffee their own food group -- as many servings a day as you like. I love to explore, travel to beautiful places, meet new people and share smiles with the world. I enjoy doing lots of volunteer work with children - they are our future - and I want to do my part to give them a better world. In my "free" time, I write nutrition education materials for schools, California and national organizations to help fight the obesity crisis that is plaguing our society. |

Try making up the rules to a game where you tie knots in a yo-yo string just to see if you can get them out:
You're only allowed to use your teeth and your tongue to get out the knots...NO HANDS ALLOWED! ;)
