Issuing supreme power to you...one moment.

My self-summary Propose an edit

I have a deep passion for the environment and being outdoors. I love hiking, kayaking, fly fishing, working out, and playing sports, mostly softball now, but I used to play lots of basketball, rugby and football. I'm easy-going, painfully honest and love laughing (of which I have a very sarcastic sense of humor).

I have many simple pleasures in life and tend to think too much. I'm overly considerate of others, which sometimes is to my detriment.

I'm very tolerant of others and not easily offended, but will let you know if you piss me off : )

More to come...

What I'm doing with my life Propose an edit

Currently, I'm a museum educator and part-time teacher/naturalist. Before my current career I was an avian rehabilitator for three years (if you don't know what that is, just ask)...and before that I joined AmeriCorps right out of college (kind of like the domestic Peace Corps)for a one-year term.

The first thing(s) people usually notice about me Propose an edit

That I look young for my age. I don't wear make-up and I usually have my hair in a ponytail, so I look much younger then I actually am. It gets really annoying sometimes, but I'll love it when I'm 40.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food Propose an edit

I love children's books and have a decent collection. I mainly collect environment-related books to use for education. I enjoy reading historical fiction, non-fiction pertaining to the outdoors...The Tracker by Tom Brown, Bill Bryson, Rachel Carson, etc. One of my favorite books of all time is The Old Man and the Sea by Hemingway...I love the passion, monologue and tragic outcome.

I love movies...going to the movies...watching a dvd...all of it. Some favorites are Princess Bride, The Crow, Full Metal Jacket, Monty Python and the Quest for the Holy Grail, any Vin Diesel movie (including The Pacifier), Little Mermaid...the list goes on and on.

I love music...(are you noticed a trend)...pretty much all of it, except jazz for personal reasons. Some artists I particularly like are Fun Loving Criminals, They Might Be Giants, Jack Johnson, Dixie Chicks...I also really like soundtracks to movies and broadway shows.

I love food...I'm not much of a meat eater, but I do enjoy a nice, big, juicy cheeseburger every once in a while with a pint (or two) of Guinness. I could eat nachos, grilled cheese, salad, veggies and ranch dip, soup, pizza and crab legs just about every day (not all of it in one day though).

I spend a lot of time thinking about Propose an edit

The environment and how everything is interdependent with each other. What my next career will be. If a tree falls and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound? Was the ivory-billed wooodpecker actually spotted? What is my cat really thinking? Evolution. Where my next big trip will be.
