Profile

I was born and raised in the redneck American south. I grew up eating collards and cornbread, listening to Skynyrd, going barefoot, and riding in the bed of a pickup truck. Luckily, I managed to get myself edumacated enough to experience a bit of the world beyond the proverbial trailer park.

I spent a year in England after college, working as a nanny. I love love love the UK, and would dearly love to live there again some day.

I'm now living in Gunma, Japan. I teach English to kids. I live in a teeny tiny Leopalace apartment. Kinda sucks, but I guess I won't live here forever, eh? It is seriously small. I will never again complain about small apartments anywhere else I might live...

Japan is crazy and fun. I see something weird every day.

When I'm not wrangling J-babies, I like reading, sewing, embroidery, cross stitch, and other crafty things. I collect miniatures. Classic rock, metal, grunge, blues, and 80's music are my faves. Movies/shopping/eating/drinking/the usual things all happen from time to time.

Had this lj since college. Working on making it breathe again. Glad to add new friends, so drop me a comment!
