about me
I am 33 years old going on 16. I grew up in South Central Pennsyltucky. My parents divorced when I was 18. My father and I don't talk.

My mother was stricken with Lupus in Summer 2007. She came out of the hospital in a wheelchair but is now able to walk with two canes.

I now have two pets. My tuxedo kitty named Hoover and my tiny, fearless cat named Xena. My old man Rainbow, who was 18 years old, died on 10/22/07; he was all black and best familiar a witch could ask for.

I am a liscensed English Teacher for grades 7-12. I used to work with mental health/mentally retarded children afterwards, I became a secretary, then I took care of my mother for a bit. Now I'm gainfully unemployed with the exception of a firespinning gig here and there.

Insert shameless self-promotion here: I have professionally performed with: poi since October 2006, fire fans since October 2008, firehoop since December 2008. I recently acquired a fire cane. I am currently learning staff and rope dart. I am available for circuses , concerts, community outreach, festivals, parades, carnivals, birthdays, weddings, street fairs, conventions, Renaissance faires, sideshow, private promotions/private parties, raves, clubs, bars, art openings, poetry readings, photography, TV, movies, spiritual events, celebrations, hashes, etc. Please hire me to play with fire.

Re: Lost & Found! (in Playa Del Fuego) I lost a bunch of stuff on my blacked out nights of drunken debauchery. I lost my hash mug which is a red plastic mug with the "Harrisburg/Hershey Hash House Harriers" logo on the side. Connected to the handle is lanyard with a plastic tag that ... read more

My Blog

I put some firespinning videos on You Tube. One is at the Mardi Gras street performance back in February. Two are our audition tapes to America's Got Talent. The rest are just various spin jam nights. If you'd like to take a look go to www.youtube.com. Click on the "channel" tab and search for mzcalamityjane. Eight of them should come up. Please let me know what you think.

I, I mean WE, are doing the Penguin Plunge on City Island in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania to benefit the Humane Society of Harrisburg Area. Now when I say WE I mean PATCHOULI and I.

We help out the strays at PDF and now we are asking you to help out the strays that can't help themselves. Please, please, please take some time and check out our fund... read more

I'm doing the Penguin Plunge on City Island in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania to benefit the Humane Society of Harrisburg Area. Please, please, please take some time and check out my fundraising page and donate some money if you are able. I would greatly appreciate it and would give you a great big bear hug the next time I saw you. Who am I kidding? I'd give you a great big bear hug regardless! Okay...then...I'd give you...a back massage! One of the best if not THE BEST back massage!

Where will you be on November 1st? If it is any place but the Grand Witches Ball it's the wrong answer!

Check it out: highland-farm-community.org/ball08.html

It's only ten dollars. There will be a DJ, a costume contest, a feast, fire performances and a Samhain ritual. Stay for the night or the weekend and pitch a tent, bring a camper or crash with a pillow and a sleeping bag in the Mother Earth Coffee Nook.

I went last year and had a blast. You will also.
