| I'm not actually Marilyn Monroe or the character she played in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, one of the movies I love, although that movie is the source of my computer name. (It's the movie with the song, "Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend.") In fact, I think anyone who knows me would say I'm not at all like Lorelei Lee. (And, yes, it is spelled differently!) |

| If you've been here before, you will realize I've been moving my webpage to Geocities from elsewhere. My page has been around for three years now, but it was time for a change. |
| I've been through a lot of changes, myself. I'm a grown-up single-again woman with three grown children, but I live in my childhood home with my mother and my brother. This could change again if I'm hired for one of the teaching jobs I'm trying to get. I would love to teach in my home town, but that possibilty seems quite remote at this time. Since I have never done an internship in a public school, I need to be hired as a regular elementary teacher to complete the one-year probation. In the meantime, I have worked in six McDonalds, one Long John Silvers, five Domino's Pizzas, three truck stop/ travel centers, and a horse-racing track, besides the seven school systems where I have subbed, the center where I taught Head Start and worked with day care children (newborns to age 13), and the two elementary schools where I worked with the Title I program. I'm nothing if not versatile. |
| I graduated from Western Kentucky University in 1986 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary Education. I have a teaching minor in art and a non-teaching one in mass communications. I have subbed in North Carolina, Kentucky, and Tennessee, taught Head Start at WKU's Campus Child Care Center, and worked in the Title I program. Presently, I hold an apprentice teaching certificate in Tennessee and the Statement of Eligibility (not unlike a driver's permit for teaching) in Kentucky. |

| I am a writer and an artist. My gallery of online art can be found here: Lorilei's Gallery. I love working on my webpages. Please visit often, because I'll be changing things around as I move into my new space. Hope you enjoy your visit! contents what's new |

| The animated cartoon doll at the top of this page was created by Calichica. She has a great site if you are interested in adopting cartoon dolls. ~.~ The MIDI playing is "Somewhere Over the Rainbow," from the movie "The Wizard of Oz," sequenced by Deb Ackley.
