What makes a person so poisonous righteous, that they'd think less of anyone who just disagreed?" --

About Me

Overgrown child, wife, mother, government wage slave, pet owner, music lover, lifelong reader, crafty bitch.I grew up with a last name associated with 'love' and married into a last name that means 'Luck'.

My Interests

Books, music, knitting, crochet, sewing, renaissance festival

Music:

Almost anything but hard core rap, death metal, overly twangy bluegrass country and maybe some other stuff. I am a band killer. If I like them overly much, they'll probably disband.

Movies:

Sci-fi, comedy, action, really bad B movies. Specifically: Princess Bride, Highlander, Reefer Madness, Nice Girls Don't Explode.

Television:

These days? Mostly SciFi or some History channel stuff. Or watching the Spawn "bond" over Rock Band.

Books:

Fantasy: Eddings, Jordan, Donaldson, Tolkien, Brooks, Pratchett, Tad Williams, etc.
