cigarettes, and keeping an eye on people who see ants crawling all over their
shoes. In record time, she's dropped checks, delivered oysters, filled coffee,

number crunch, counsel and educate, smooth talk and copy sling. Currently, she's
a mother, a daughter, a sister, a lover, a warrior, a poet, a
