About Me

I was raised in Marin County, California!I am trying to find a place for myself in this world and it is a tough thing to do!I am not sure where I am headed yet but I am doing my best to have a good time getting there!I have the pitifully old fashioned dream of owning a house and raising a few children.Mostly I just want to find a way to be happy and get by. I don't need to be rich. I would just like to get by and avoid debt.

My Interests

Literature, Books, Digital Animation, Japanese Animation, Publishing, Music, Needlework, Sewing, Computers, Current Events, Recent History, Ancient History

I'd like to meet:

Well, I am using this site to locate old friends and aquaintances. Also to make it easier for them to locate me!

Music:

I enjoy a rather eclectic combination of music! Ranging from purely instrumental modern movie soundtracks to classical piano, jazz, folk, rock etc.

Movies:

I enjoy movies! I like movies that push the envelope in some way or experiment with the experience being provided to the audience.

Television:

I don't watch television regurlary so most of what I see is available on DVD!I love Comedy Central (Daily Show, Mind of Menci, South Park & Drawn Together!)I love the History Channel but I am happier with History International!I love the National Geographic Channel.And I like to watch the "Murder Channel", Court TV!Favorite Shows: Firefly, The Family Guy, The Simpsons, Samurai Jack , House, Bones & CSI

Books:

My taste varies widely in this category as well! I read modern fantasy novels literature majors might consider trash (I love Mercedes Lackey!) but I also have annoyed my husband by laughing out loud while reading Moby Dick at 3am!My biggest challenge in life when it comes to literature is locating decent translations of what I want to read! I majored in classic literature but I never mastered the classic languages (Latin & Greek)! I also have a foundness for well translated Japanese literature!

Heroes:

I can't think of any one person I strive to be like! I am attracted to concepts and qualities.
