1. Do you have any books signed by the author? Why did you decide on these authors to sign their books?

Yes, I have a book called "The Mitten", it's a Russian children's book. I played clarinet for her signing back in college and she gave me a book. I also have " Way Out in the Desert" signed by the author, who came to our school.

2. If you could go back in time with someone in history, Who would it be and why?

That is a tough one. I'll have to think about that.

No, but I am signing up for the Sony photography workshop in July. I also read a lot about photography.

4. If you could pick somewhere to live if money were no object, Where would you live and why?

Somewhere in Southern California. I like warm weather, like the beach and fun things to do. Most of all, I would love to live close to my brother-in-law and sister-in-law.

5. What was an important moment in your life that if you wouldn't have done it, it could have changed the course of your life?

Gone to college at Potsdam. I met my future husband there and our paths would be very different if we hadn't met.

All time? I love craigslist, I check it everyday. I also love SBA, but I haven't been posting there lately.

Best: I can be a very good listener.
Worst: I get very anxious about a lot of little things and drive other people nuts.

8. What was one of the most embarrassing moments in your life?

When I yelled "Mambo" in the wrong place playing in the pit of West Side Story in college. Another was when I fell backwards off the piano bench flat on my back in middle school chorus class during my first year teaching.

9. What was the best advice your parents ever gave you?

I don't know. My mom doesn't give a lot of advice, but she didn't baby me through things and I appreciate that. My dad always encouraged me to get a good education.

10. If someone was to make a movie about you, Who would play you? Tell us why? Is it their looks, personality? What?
