About Me

Amused, half-asian and brutally honest. I have a serious weakness for long-haired men (and have a lot of hair myself), and I still love 80's music. I am a big fan of good sushi, cold sake and good conversation. I hug everybody.I think music is the essence of life, and so have a very eclectic collection, but for me the ultimate is singing it. I play keys also, but am not usually coordinated enough to play and sing at the same time!I have been brewing mead for over twelve years. I love to play mad scientist when coming up with flavors - it's part of the fun. It also adds to my popularity at medieval events... and life got a lot cheaper when I learned to make my own alcohol!I am a voracious reader and tend to go through a couple of books a week. I also love to shoot pool - I started learning when I was eight, and have discovered that the best people to beat are the ones who assume that women don't know how to play. Granted, there are fewer of those every year, but they're still out there.I have "Wiccan" as my religion as it was the closest match, but I'm more of a general Neo-Pagan with leanings toward Shinto. Wicca itself is a bit too ritualized for me. And my thinking on religion is simple - believe whatever you want, more power to you, just don't try to stuff your beliefs down *my* throat.I am a fairly vicious copy editor, which follows from having an English teacher for a father, and obvious spelling and grammar errors make my spine twitch. l33tspeak also drives me crazy.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Anyone with a passion for life and a sense of humor. I love Monty Python - I hate the Three Stooges. Make of that what you will.Whiners and drama queens need not apply. Also, the quickest way to get me out of your life is to lie to me. I treat my friends with honesty and expect them to return the courtesy.And while it would be wonderful to meet the love of my life, I don't honestly believe that he exists. Please, if you don't know where capital letters and punctuation belong in a sentence, don't blind contact me. If your writing style makes me grind my teeth, you're not making a good impression.

OK, THAT was bizarre.

At about 1:30 in the morning last night, I started having abdominal pain. It wasn't anything I'd felt before, so I took some antacid and waited to see if it would go away. It didn't, and i...

SWEET.

I just called in to close the account. It felt REALLY good to hand my credit card to a coworker and ask "Can you run this through the shredder?"I am damn near debt free.
