Miscellanea (personal interests, community involvement, etc.):
I have a dog, her name is Annie. She's the best dog in the
world. I take her for walks, but it is never enough for her. I
put pen to paper occasionally and out comes a story. I also
put pencil to paper and out comes a drawing. I enjoy sitting as
an activity and also enjoy eating foods that modern culture has
deemed to be "bad" for you.
