About Me

I was born in the year of the Monkey in Northern California very near the autumn equinox and just this side of Libra, on September 24th. I survive and thrive in Reykjavik, Iceland now, in the land of my ancestors...been here six years now, six years on this lava rock. Some days I love it, some days I want my West Coast beaches and the calming rumble of the Pacific on my white sandy beaches. I miss really good fresh salads for next to nothing and breakfast in resaturants, but I don't miss toxic tap water and smog and humans rotting alive in the streets of big cities...things we don't have in Iceland. I'll never be fully satisfied, I suppose.
I love Frank Murder and my girl Valentina. Frank is sexy and fresh and complex, has an excellent sense of beauty and a will to power rarely seen these days...He's hot. Valentina's seven and is like a force of nature...is one with nature and is zen in life, alive in full. We all live together in a small apt just big enough so we don't lose each other, and there we try to leave the big scary world at the door and live well.
I write and write and write...and I teach English to kiddies and teens. I translate, and I try to sense the unspoken, the whispered, the magic of this strange, fantastic life I'm lucky to be living. I talk to animals and they talk back to me...
