Special education teacher, traveler, (lousy) painter, heavy metal, punk, and horror movie addict.

Priorities are: education, justice, Indian food, art, poetry, cats, deep sea creatures, punk shows, and my leather jacket, in that order.

I lived in China for three years teaching English. No, I don't speak Chinese very well. Yes, the pollution is terrible. The food is pretty good, and it's different from Chinese food here. I got to visit Cambodia, Hong Kong, and Thailand while I was there. This has been a lovely conversation.
