hilarie, six and twenty. born of the land of coal mines, then a six-year stint in the new england towne of blizzards, street trolleys, the pixies and that rustic little ballpark in the fenway. now i live in washington, d.c. with an aussie husband and an unquenchable desire for a skinny gray cat. my passions are education, film and art history (not necessarily in that order). my favorite museums are the free ones. my favorite church picnics are the ones with gambling wheels. my love is true and my drink of choice will always be maker's.
