Crystal

Opportunity knocks once. Temptation leans on the doorbell.

About Me

I'm just me, someone who is still trying to make it through each day. I laugh, I cry, I talk, I hang out with my friends. I have feelings that can be bruised, and I have a heart that can still be broken too. I'm just me.

My Interests

Learning for its own sake, cooking, dancing, swimming, reading, writing, sewing

I'd like to meet:

People I once cared about. Cats. Terry Goodkind. Scott Westerfeld. Robert Heinlein. Everybody who has every written an "Idiot's Guide" to something.

Music:

I like almost everything, although I'm not a big fan of gangsta rap. Rap, old school rap that actually had a meaning behind it, that I still enjoy. Contemporary country, R&B, rock, jazz, funk, classic rock, electronica.

Movies:

Lots

Television:

DVR

Books:

I like a variety...Science fiction, fantasy, true crime, straightforward basic fiction, cheesy romance, you name it, I like to at least make the attempt at reading it.

Heroes:

People who can make decisions for themselves, not because of what someone else thinks. People who can overcome the past to see that there can still be a future. And cats.

My Blog

Blog has moved

Pay no attention to what you might have heardBlog has relocated. Further posts will be there. Myspace is broken too often to suit me.

Doctors visits, MRI's and answers

Yesterday, bad things, and tests

I'll probably be blogging a lot more lately, because my streak of being busy and trying to be normal again just ended. I had a seizure last night, while I was making dinner. It's the first one I've e...

Karma

So yeah, Karma. I've always more or less believed in Karma in the traditional sense, but at the root it seems to go back to "do unto others". I let the car in the driveway out if there's a huge line o...

Things change/sometimes they circle around/sometimes they just change

I am so tired. And cold. I'm freezing. I've been freezing all day it seems. I got a little bit chilled this morning, and it snowballed (no pun intended) into complete freezing by this afternoon. I've ...

Quote for Kat

If you want to know where your heart is, look where your mind goes when it wanders.
