“A census taker tried to quantify me once. I ate his liver with some fava beans and a big Amarone.”

OK, not exactly. But that sums me up pretty well. I can’t think of a better quote, even though I’m not a cannibal. I’m an artist, beading freak, newbie internet marketer, avid reader, lover of all things cool and unusual, and a total smarta$$. Like Dave Chapelle, you’d never guess that I am a Muslim. I also have a soft spot for cats, people who hate their jobs, botanical gardens, Paula Deen, and inspiring others. A couple of my many guilty pleasures are Eminem, COPS, and eating whipped cream straight from the can. Some of my dreams are learning to sew, making people smile with my blog posts, improving my self-esteem, and visiting the Alhambra in Spain. That’s me. What about you?
