| Introduction | Loves a good story well told. Grew up in Wenonah, NJ (exit 3 off the NJ Turnpike). Only eats MSG when it's in her homemade onion dip. Thinks Jon Stewart is a god. Believes her kid is the kindest soul on earth. Doesn't understand people who don't like dogs. Still thinks of herself as the 34-year-old runner she was 20 years ago. Drops the f-bomb more than Lewis Black. Respects people who turn their compassion into action. Loves high thread-count sheets. Has journaled since she was 12. Knows that "journal" is not a verb, but uses it that way anyway. Will not give her bike to her brother when she dies. Doesn't give a rat's ass how much money you have, if the word "chief" is on your business card, or what your family name is. Is more impressed by kindness, creativity and a wicked sense of humor. |
