ChelseaLake

Howdy! My name is Chelsea. I live in the Midwest in a typical Midwestern town. I have a cat with a silly name and live in a small apartment in the center of town with him and my boyfriend.

I am a mental health tech and work primarily with teens with severe behavioral/psychiatric problems. This causes me great stress as well as great pleasure. I wear many hats including mentor, therapist, orderly, babysitter, and janitor. I can't really see myself doing anything else in my future. I think I may be a "lifer".

I spend my free time running, drinking insane amounts of coffee, and painting. I really try hard to enjoy my life.

I love roller coasters, tattoos, new life experiences, kids (although I have none of my own), eating, and pretty much everything.

I love going to comedy and music shows.

I have a mental bucket list.

I am always looking for fun activities to do with the kids at work, so if you have any ideas, shoot them my way!

I want to travel to different countries someday. I keep saying I'm going to create a savings account specifically for this, but it has yet to be done.

I love to swap!

I work full-time plus. That means that through the week, I am in various meetings and pick up many shifts in addition to my 40 hour job. I work second shift. This means that if you send me a message between the hours of 2pm and 11:45pm EST, I am not going to be able to see/respond to it.
