Maria and Josh share a mutual love of fast texting and being on-time. They have attended nearly a dozen Yankees games together and have always been there for each other during the good times (winning football championships) and the bad (trips to the ER). They share a love for terrible teenage dramas (The OC, Gossip Girl) and trying not to eat foods that will kill them. Maria is in her 13th year as a teacher in Baltimore and lives with her husband and their pet fish.
