I was born in Phoenix
I'm an only child
I'm easy going and unpretentious
I do impressions and dialects
I'm incredibly strong-willed; I survived a near-death experience only by my sheer will to survive.

I love cats, like dogs and have an evil rabbit.. She growls at me. Only me.
I like to kayak, but am terrified of water.. especially rivers.

I am terrified of heights in any form. In a car I will climb to the side that isn't on the edge.

In the shower I close my eyes and compose music for operas.

I have to change purses everyday. I can't stand using the same one for more than a day or two.

I pretty much only wear dresses and heels. I only own one pair of sneakers.

I fancy people with accents.

I have won 2 contests in my life...one was for the largest bubble blown (with gum) and the other was a bench pressing contest...

I am concerned that I am becoming an example of the phrase "the one who dies with the most fabric wins"...I am Mad for fabrics...and leathers...and, well, anything I can get a needle and thread through...

I have two new floor model industrial sewing machines (juki for those who care) and a regular home machine, and although I sew most every day, I send out all my dresses to be hemmed...I really can't stand that kind of sewing...the girl at the dry cleaners store laughs at me all the time...but, let's be honest--who actually Wants to hem a dress?...not I said the little red hen (wink icon)

I've been to culinary school...I've taught baking and basic cooking...for years and years I made all our bread...and cakes and cookies and pies...I'm able to can and preserve and pickle and do all that kind of stuff...I'm tired of doing it all...it's so much work...I will do it for gifts...and if I want to impress someone, but the problem with that is then they figure it's an all the time thing (insert rueful shrug icon)

I taught at standford university in the english department (many years ago) one of the students who didn't like me wrote a scathing review of the class...his last line was "what can you expect?...she's from new york and she's a Jew!!"...I think that weakened his argument...

1. (Taking inspiration from Neen above) ... I have won two things in my life. I won a CD from a radio station. I also was the lucky caller at the local radio station of the town I had just moved to. It was a birthday contest. I won $100 for my birthday being in my month, but almost won $1000. The day they called out specifically was one day off my birthday. Funniest part was I was so new to the city, that I didn't know the station's call letters, which is pretty embarrasing when they're like, "Soooo, tell us who just made you a winner?" <crickets>
2. I still have my 12-inch Charlie Brown Christmas tree out.
3. I've gone swimming with dolphins (at a really cool place in Orlando that is man-made but totally doesn't feel like it in some places.)
4. Among the most famous athletes I have interviewed are Michael Jordan, Lance Armstrong, Rudy Reuttiger (of the move Rudy fame..as well as the quarterback he sacked) and Ken Carter (of Coach Carter movie fame). And a slew of others that serious sports nuts would know but casual fans would go, 'huh?'
5. My roommate says I'm the worst beer pong player ever, but that's just based on one outing and he's biased! LOL

1. I'm both one of the most ambitious and laziest people I know, resulting in high mediocrity much of the time.

2. I have always been afraid of heights, but now it's ridiculous. High escalators freak me out, but I force myself to use them.

3. I won an art contest when I was six or seven. I still have the plaque somewhere. I also won several prizes at dances when I was a teenager. The DJ would walk around and award prizes to the best dancers. My best prize was a Moody Blues album, "Days of Future Past".

4. I would like to renovate my house (a 50's ranch) so it resembles an arts and crafts cottage.

5. We're getting ready to go away for the weekend. Going to Lake George for V-Day and Winter Carnival.
