Hi, my name is Jen, and I can write about myself for hours on end. If you read this website, you will learn much more about me than you will ever want to know. But I try to be interesting at least, and I always welcome new friends and ideas.

So now that you know my name is Jen, know this. My full name is Jennifer, and I don’t like going by anything but Jen. Jenni, Jennie, and Jenny are totally unacceptable. Jennifer is the name my mother used to yell at me when I was in trouble. So unless I am in some sort of trouble or you are sending me a bill, don’t bother with Jennifer either.

I am married. My husband’s name is James, but I also call him Jimmy James, and just plain Jimmy. He requested his pseudonym on this site be “James the Conqueror,” and I being foolish, allowed it. We have been married nearly two years after eloping in Las Vegas, Nevada. To those of you who know me personally and those of you who don’t, this means NO ONE WAS INVITED TO MY WEDDING. NOT EVEN MY PARENTS. Or his parents. Or anybody. We now live in a tiny three bedroom house in sprawling, under-construction suburbia just outside a smallish resort town.

Next on the docket of things that need to be covered, I need to mention I am religious. I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, also known as being a Mormon. I was raised in a big family with four brothers and a sister. I currently teach Sunday School to three eleven-year-olds with my husband. Those poor children are incredibly outnumbered.

I persue a lot of creative things to off set my boring, childless life in the suburbs. I love to take photos, and I am currently working on making it so that people actually pay me for my photos. If you would like to help a poor, starving newlywed, check out my Flickr and drop me a line. I love all things smothered in barbeque sauce, acoustic covers, and taking photos.
