somethings you may (or may not) know about me...

I'm being lazy tonight. Work was....yeah, there really aren't any words for how work was today. I am sore, I will have a nasty bruise on my leg in the morning (tripped over my shoes laces and crashed into the camera stand...yeah, I'm not graceful at all) and squatting all day, making stupid noises and trying to make 16 month and miserable 16 year olds smile is no easy feat. I'm pooped. Creativity boot camp assignments are on hold until tomorrow night. But tonight, it's all about me. So here ya have it....somethings you may or may not know about moi.
