| Introduction | I spend an endless amount of time stressing over the literary *lives* of fictional characters; my students' academic future; and most importantly my family/friends. In short, I'm a professional worry wart extraordinaire. Oh, and I like fretting, venting, and musing about all the potentially irrevocable damage I may be inflicting on my poor unsuspecing child who was cursed with an anti-Martha Stewart like me for a mum. I like doing this a rather lot. *sigh* It's just a race against the clock before she publishes a tell-all book that makes Joan Crawford and Bette Davis seem like la Nanny Poppins in comparison. |
| Interests | (See About Me section for additional details). Writing, reading, teaching and praying that I'm not royally screwing this neat motherhod gig up. I'm also a wee bit blogger phobic since I've seen waaaaay too many Lifetime specials and quite frankly ax-murderers happen to nice people like me. :) |
| Favorite Movies | The Three Faces of Eve, Memento, Run Lola Run, Emma, Sabrina (Audrey Hepburn version) Sense & Sensibility, Amelie, Mansfield Park, Crouching Tiger/Hidden Dragon, Becoming Jane, House of Flying Daggers, Annie Hall, Enchanted, all the Potter films |
| Favorite Music | Landon Pigg, Feist, Ben's Brother, Steve Miller Band, The Cure, The Eagles, Simon and Garfunkle, Morrisey, Lily Allen, Smiths, Fleetwood Mac, Beethoven's Für Elise, Ramones, The Supremes, Tupac, Siouxie & the Banshees, Juliana Hatsfield, the Pixies, Paramore, Violent Femmes, Hole, 80s Retro, Cheesy Duets, Cartoon Theme Songs Proof of my daughter's growing influence on me: Hannah Montana, Jonas Brothers, Aly & AJ, and the Cheetah Girls |

Who I'd Like to Meet: My daughter and my former students once they have become parents themselves so I can laugh and laugh (well, you get the idea). =)
