This is more important than any of that gibberish below. Ready? Wait. Now, you can't forget it. So are you really ready? Yes. Are you sure? Ok.

Remember: always take a banana to a party.

You'll thank me one day.

{Pre-emptive warning: I sometimes play the stupidest games ever but they are a good distraction from absurdly out-of-control pain levels so please don't hold it against me. Also, I have a seriously overactive imagination; Big, ugly, and scary monsters jumping out on screen makes me squeal like a 6 year old girl so I don't play Borderlands and the like much. Unless I'm just in a masochistic mood. :D}

I'm a Texas girl. Raised in the Dirty Bay (BC), spent some time in CS, a bit longer in atx and now full of H-town goodness.

I have a BS in psychology from A&M and I'm a teacher. Inspiring minds and stuff. I am married to the love of my life and have an adorable son (update: but now he's a teenage son - and let me tell you, parenting a teenager is an adventure). Oh, I have two pretty sweet dogs. (Update: My 10 year old ride-or-die, Roscoe, passed away in October and my heart shattered but I could feel him telling me not to be sad. Roscoe was half Australian Shepherd so I knew it was a sign when I found this really sweet 1 year old rescue in February who was half Australian Shepherd too. Maddie, however, is now 10 and just a cranky old English bulldog. Courage plays with her sometimes and it's quite funny to watch.)
