About Me

I live in Buffalo NY with my husband Howie and our pet rat Sally.

My friends are not in order of importance. I love you all so don't act all weird because you aren't number one. Howie is and always will be my number one and I'm not ranking you all beyond that. The current order is mostly random except that I've grouped friends and families together.

My Interests

follow Geirny at http://twitter.com I find history fascinating up to the point they start fighting wars primarily with guns. I've been in the SCA over 20 years.I play Everquest 2, a lot, on the AB server. My main is a 70 Mystic named Melora.

Your Fortune Is
Life is like a sewer... what you get out of it depends on what you put into it. The Wacky Fortune Cookie Generator

I'd like to meet:

People who share my interests, are friendly and are not idiots.

Music:

My musical tastes are very ecclectic. If I listed all the bands and types of music I like this would be too long. Seriously my CD collection encompasses everything from groups like Air Supply to bands like Slayer. Really I'll listen to almost anything except that I'm not overly fond of Country. For like a decade my favorite song has been "Temple of Love" by The Sisters of Mercy. My current favorite band however are HIM, a Finnish rock band with which I am entranced. I've been playing their albums Love Metal, Razorblade Romance & Darklight almost constantly.

As for this one, Pete Steel...fangs... gah, what else can I say?

Movies:

I am not a huge film buff. I rarely go to the movies and if I do something has to have really attracted me to that film.

A few favs are Practical Magic, The Lord of the Rings Trilogy (Peter Jackson is a genius), The Secret of Roan Inish, The 13th Warrior, Clerks, The Nightmare Before Cristmas, the CKY series, Jackass, Jackass 2 (This shit gets funnier everytime), The Dudesons.

Also I'll devour almost any vampire flick. From the seriously scarey to the seriously stupid, if there are fangs in it I'm there.
Do you like Vampires too? Want to be one? Monster Game

Oddly I'm not that into period films which is practically a requirement as an SCA member. Most of my SCA friends groan out loud when I tell them my favorite period film is Flesh & Blood with Rutger Hauer. *grin*

Television:

I don't watch TV anymore. Really I don't. If I watch one show a week it's because I've wandered over to see what H is watching. If I feel the need to entertain myself but have become bored by the internet & EQ2 I will watch a DVD or video tape. 8 times of 10 its something from my funny idiots collection.

Books:

I read a fair amount non-fiction to further my history and art interests. For fiction I'm keen on Fantasy Adventure. My favorite author hands down is Terry Pratchett. Read "Small Gods" if nothing else. Seriously. I also like Anne McCaffrey and Piers Anthony.

I'll read some horror, mostly vampire stories, also H.P. Lovecraft and his immitators.

Heroes:

My husband Howie is my hero. This is because he is my knight in shining armor.

My Blog

Yes, I am aware Im spoiled in some ways. I generally pay for it in other facets of life.

So last night we drove over to Canada. I needed to hit a Canadian ticketmaster outlet in order to pick up the HIM tickets I'd already paid for on-line. While there I spent the cash I'd been hoarding f...

Life is short and love is always over in the morning...

I'm actually in a decent mood. The title is just me quoting my favorite song, because I have The Sisters of Mercy playing. I may be a semi-obsessive HIM fangirl, but "Temple of Love" is still my favo...

Im OK

First let me say I'm fine. Or at least whatever is wrong with me is not life threating in an immediate sense. As to what is wrong they aren't sure. After nine hours in the ER, blood work, EKGs, CAT sc...
