About Me: I have loved playing sports all my life, I would much rather play a sport than simply exercise. I love to travel to different areas, this year I have traveled to New York, Washington DC, Colorado Springs, Seattle, Maui and San Antonio. I love to watch TV, but nothing reality based; life has enough drama without watching it on TV! If I could have a super power it would be stop time, I could get so much more done!
