CURRENT MISSION

My mission is three-fold: 1. Make the World seem a bit smaller. 2. See Sigur Ros perform live, and 3. Access a new supply of turtle figurines and plush (I just may have exhausted the Canadian supply...) :D

ABOUT ME

I tend to be a bit on the quiet side...rather shy...I love all animals (except perhaps slugs...and spiders must keep their distance). I have two cats and two rats. I love music. I love reading and writing. I rather dislike describing myself in a paragraph... ;) I'm a non-smoker, non-drinker. I have an unrealized sense of adventure. I love writing competitions with crazy deadlines ( nanowrimo.org and scriptfrenzy.org ). I'm married. Dave and I have no children (other than the aforementioned cats and rats).

Interests

Cats, rats, turtles, reading, writing, listening to music, long walks, peanut butter sandwiches, caffeine, nature, amateur photography, cake (more the eating of it, than the making of it), fat bumblebees...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've seen Depeche Mode in concert, which I had (up to that point) been waiting 13 years to do...

Teach, Learn, Share

I can give a cat an insulin injection - which, admittedly, pretty much only comes in handy when there is a cat...who needs an insulin injection...
