About Me

I am a boring middle aged librarian who loves technology and books. I am very open minded and what many would call "a bleeding heart Liberal". I have two adult children and a very special two year old grand-daughter. I'm an excellent listener (usually)and do my best to be nonjudgmental

My Interests

I'd like to meet:


Anyone and everyone. I don't know a lot of people in the community and am interested in making new friends to chat with. I would also like to meet librarians and writers.
