About Me
I spend an endless amount of time stressing over the literary *lives* of fictional characters; my students' academic future; and most importantly my family/friends. In short, I'm a professional worry wart extraordinaire. Oh, and I like fretting, venting, and musing about all the potentially irrevocable damage I may be inflicting on my poor unsuspecing child who was cursed with an anti-Martha Stewart like me for a mum. I like doing this a rather lot. *sigh* It's just a race against the clock before she publishes a tell-all book that makes Joan Crawford and Bette Davis seem like la Nanny Poppins in comparison.
Who I'd Like to Meet: My daughter and my former students once they have become parents themselves so I can laugh and laugh (well, you get the idea). =)
Interests
- (See About Me section for additional details). Writing
- reading
- teaching and praying that I'm not royally screwing this neat motherhod gig up. I'm also a wee bit blogger phobic since I've seen waaaaay too many Lifetime specials and quite frankly ax-murderers happen to nice people like me. :)
