I have a tub of costumes living in the back of my car. I absolutely adore singing! If I could do whatever I wanted with my life it would be musical theatre. I think it's silly to ask someone to pick their favorite color, but if I had to pick just one, it'd be red. I love foreign languages. I [unfortunately] have to stick to a gluten-free and lactose-free diet. I tie knots in blades of grass.

I'm the mother of a gray tabby named Winston :-D
