About Me

I'm studying Geology, obsessed with The Beatles, and like colorful things. I love riding my bike, Eugene, pets, and paint. I tend to sing all the time, and I'm a ref for the Emerald City Rollergirls. I like to be in the sun but not as much as I love to be in the rain. The beach is my favorite place in the world, especially when it's gray outside and raining. I work at the only exclusively BioFuel station in the U.S. (SeQuential), but I don't pump gas. I make coffee. A lot of Organic coffee. I also drink a lot of coffee. I spend most of my time chillin' with Jebediah (Shteph), working, cleaning, and reading. I like to paint. Tea is nice as well. I'm a vegetarian (not because I'm against eating dead thing, but because of all the bullshit synthetic food the things are fed before we kill them, and colon cancer runs in the family).

My Interests

The Beatles, paint, new friends, Disc Golf, bicycles, competitive Barista-ing, women's roller derby, cooking, sustainability, preparation for the impending Zombie apocalypse, Ancient man, rocks, MUSIC!!, and Vegan/ Vegetarianism.

What? She could possibly maybe perhaps be somewhat critical of intelligent design? BURN HER!

A Texas science education official forced to resign in October wasn't -- as her bosses inisted -- fairly punished for insubordination. Her real crime: daring to tell people about a lecture critical of...

Here, there, and everywhere.
