Rather than carry on with a boring bio of ‘I did this, and I did that’, let’s get on with who I really am…
I drink coffee, I drive fast, I procrastinate, I think outside of the box w/ my 'vivid imagination', I lose track of time, I have an insatiable appetite for black jellybeans, I'm an expert nap-taker, I am that one person in the tour group who gets lost, I have a knack for run-on sentences, and I like to think I'm funny. I also write books.
