About Me

Graphic designer by day, animal rescuer by night! My current focus is fighting Ontario's BS-BSL! I am also co-founder of a small but dedicated rescue group: Ador-A-Bull Dog Rescue (www.Ador-A-Bull.com) I am also the owner or Auntie Em's - www.AuntieEms.org, a little side project that allows me to donate funds to rescues in need of help! I share my world with a zoo full of rescued critters . . . and wouldn't have it any other way!
And no, i won't add your band do don't bother requesting i do :P
I can be moody and snarky and i don't mind that about myself one bit - took me w while to build up some walls and let others down. I look out for my friends and appreciate those who are like-minded. I don't suffer fools lightly and don't have time to quibble over insignifigant gossip. Some days are too long, but life's too short not to enjoy a glass of wine (or several) and a phone call from a good friend!
