Where are you living now?

Tacoma, Washington

 

 

Are you planning to attend the 20-year class reunion?

No.

 

 

Are you married?

No.

 

 

Do you have kids?

Adopted two boys (now both 2 yrs) but when I got home I noticed that they each had 4 legs and long tails.  The agency wouldn't let me return them. ;D

 

 

What I do in real life is…

In real life after more than 10 years of sweat, blood and tears in the Seafood industry, I left to pursue my dream of becoming a Lead Meter Technician.  In my fake life I am the Queen of my own Island where occupations are of little use.

 

 

My hobbies and/or interests are…

For thrills I ride a Honda Shadow 750cc, skydive once a year(started with a jump on my 35th and fell in love with it) kayak, hike.  I am a Chief Crew Leader with a non-profit organization that builds and maintains trails throughout Washington; this is what really makes me tick.

 

 

The friends I keep in touch with from high school are…

At first quite a few, but in the last 10 years not so much. Life happens and we all move in different directions eh?

 

 

My favorite teacher in high school was…

Who wouldn't say Mr. Eldred and drivers ed for the sheer frivolity of it all.  Runs out to McDonalds, stops in alleys for raids on apple trees, watching him fall asleep while you perused up and down First and Front St.  For actual learning Mr. McLaughlin.  I know this isn't the popular answer but English was never the same after 4 years of deciphering 101 ways to put your name on a test paper, or trying to correctly identify for extra points the objects of yore he was always bringing in.

 

 

My funniest memories of high school are…

Well many mostly centered around crappy cheap wine coolers,,,with Heather Thomson (go figure) but I can't seem to remember them!

 

 

What I wish I had done different in high school…

Not drink those crappy wine coolers.  I wish that I could have stopped half of the soccer team (you know who you are) from getting drunk the night before state.  Perhaps we would have gone farther.. ;O
