About Me

I am a quiet person who does not enjoy the spotlight, but at times find myself in unusual situations or at odd events as I really enjoy variety and trying out new and interesting things. Im the one to call if any friend wants to try something new and or weird. But Im not as ecclectic as this profile may make me appear. Im rather normal, with unique tastes. I grew up abroad and moved just about every year until I graduated from highschool, at which time I moved here- but I am NOT a military brat. I have been called a brat before though. I have been exposed to many different cultures and have a great interest in cultural and ethnic things. I speak German almost fluently, and Spanish conversationally. I am currently learning Italian. I collect masks, medieval weapons and other ethnic artifacts, and my house looks very much like a museum. I have two really great kids and we have a lot of fun together. I was made to be a mom and love kids. Mine is the house where all the children converge. I am a part time participant in the SCA, and one of my favourite things in the world is going to SCA wars with my friends and family. I dream of travelling more some day, and hope to live abroad again when my kids are all grown up. I enjoy throwing dinner parties and cooking. I am very creative and enjoy many differnt forms of artistic expression. Spiritually, I have my own beliefs. I draw from a variety of religions and beliefs, and have formed my own version. I can be very open and talkative in one situation, and utterly socially inept in another. I rarely do well in a big group. I am at times stupidly honest and can be somewhat blunt- but never intend hurtfulness. Sometimes I am very odd, other times completely average and normal. I am very typical of a Cancer personality type. hahaha- Im moody! There are many sides to me. I think thats a girl thing though, and not exclusive to me, or cancers.
