Lets see...I work from home on various things. I'm a photographer, Reiki practitioner, and I also do transcription for a company called Energy Arts that operates out of San Francisco. I used to live in California and I miss it from time to time. Mostly just the coast and the food.

I graduated from UC Santa Cruz with a BA in Literature and a concentration in Creative Writing and a minor in Education. I originally wanted to be a creative writing teacher and after all that schooling, I decided I didn't want to step foot back into school. I still write from time to time, but really not much any more. Every once in a blue moon I'll post a poem.

I have one daughter, Lorna, and my husband's name is Jim. We're just having the one child. That seems to be plenty for us! Ahahaha!

Aside from working from home, I also homeschool Lorna.

When I'm not busy doing work, I generally like to be outside. I like to be by the sea the most, but I don't get there very often. I love to garden, hike, camp, ride my bike...Anything that gets me outdoors. I'm a nature nugget. I do like to hang out in cemeteries. It is my version of "church." A place where I can be quiet and think about things. I also tend to like the macabre, anything ghoulish, the occult, metaphysics, and the paranormal. Although, I don't believe in Bigfoot or the Loch Ness monster.

I also love to paint. I will never say I'm a painter! I love to paint. That doesn't mean I'm good at it at all. Ahahah! I just do it for relaxation and spiritual expression.

I also like to make my own jewelry. I do some beading, but that's about as "craftsy" as I get. I don't sew, crochet, knit, scrapbook or do anything else you could find down any aisle at a Michaels Crafts store.

I hate to cook, but I love to bake (and generally only at Christmas). Jim is the chef in our house. :)

I am a lover of all animals.

I do have 6 cats, 2 fish, and a myriad of outdoor birds (my backyard is a wildlife sanctuary and a bird haven. Birding is a hobby). I'm trying to convince Jim to get a dog, but I think he might kill me because the animals far outnumber the people in the house.

I am a total movie whore and snob and freely admit that. I'm also a music whore and snob and also freely admit that.

I don't do a shit ton of TV and I never post about TV shows. But here are the few shows I watch. If these aren't on, then the TV isn't on and I don't even watch the reruns.

The Daily Show
The Colbert Report
The Office
The Deadliest Catch
Dirty Jobs
Ghost Hunters
Mythbusters

For those of you that like to just run down the stats on someone, here are some usual "deal breakers" for people:

I am:

*Moderate/Liberal
*Pro Choice
*Taoist/Pagan
*Virgo with a Cancer moon and Cancer rising and a shitload of planets in Libra
