I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

who am i? i am legion. kidding. i'm taking meds for that. seriously tho, i'm an american expat living in china with my husband of one year. i quit the rat race (ok, the ex work place is like some kind of crazy disfunction junction, but whatever) and i'm just hanging out, lunching with my girls, traveling, learning and having some fun. me and the spousal unit are just trying to keep the kat from setting herself on fire, and learning life's lessons in the interim. nothin' fancy here, just me and mine.

My Interests

art, music (listening and making)writing, singing, traveling, cooking, painting, anything out of doors, esp. hiking in the woods, history, science, pop culture, and sooooo many more. i love vampire anything, books, movies, etc. i have an interest in the study of theology. i like studying biology and some physics, just for kicks. i'm twizted that way. i'm twizted in several other ways too, but we won't go into that! just ask crayonsaint about the "accoutrements." i like to drive fast with the windows down and the music loud. i love the feeling of freedom, i have a tendancy to do the things that scare me, i like to push my limits and engage my adreneline response. i just like to be moving. i like men who wear shiny black rubber clothing and own their own handcuffs. and legcuffs. and know interesting ways to make me scared. i like spring and fall, going to see live music, chocolate in my morning coffee, learning new things from interesting people and i work best under pressure. i like to compete, and i like even more to win. i am an alpha female. i plan to have red hair until i die (or should that be "dye?") ha.

I'd like to meet:

why, anyone who will further my interests, pique my curiosity, or make me purr.

You are The Sun

Happiness, Content, Joy.

The meanings for the Sun are fairly simple and consistent.

Young, healthy, new, fresh. The brain is working, things that were muddled come clear, everything falls into place, and everything seems to go your way.

The Sun is ruled by the Sun, of course. This is the light that comes after the long dark night, Apollo to the Moon's Diana. A positive card, it promises you your day in the sun. Glory, gain, triumph, pleasure, truth, success. As the moon symbolized inspiration from the unconscious, from dreams, this card symbolizes discoveries made fully consciousness and wide awake. You have an understanding and enjoyment of science and math, beautifully constructed music, carefully reasoned philosophy. It is a card of intellect, clarity of mind, and feelings of youthful energy.

What Tarot Card are You?
Take the Test to Find Out.

Music:


Your Dominant Intelligence is Musical Intelligence
Every part of your life has a beat, and you're often tapping your fingers or toes.
You enjoy sounds of all types, but you also find sound can distract you at the wrong time.
You are probably a gifted musician of some sort - even if you haven't realized it.
Also a music lover, you tend to appreciate artists of all kinds.

You would make a great musician, disc jockey, singer, or composer. What Kind of Intelligence Do You Have?way too much to even mention. everything from classical to punk, and all genres in between. if it's got rhythm, i'm probably gonna listen. i play guitar, and have done singing gigs my whole life. i listen to music of all kinds on a constant basis. there is a running soundtrack in my head.
You Would Choose Money
You know that love doesn't always last forever - but money can.
Why bother with jealousy, petty fights, and hurt feelings?
You rather just go shopping!
And while marrying for money may be lonely, you'll always be well dressed, well traveled, and well fed. Would You Choose Love or Money?
You Belong in the Baby Boomer Generation
You fit in best with people born between 1943 and 1960.
You are optimistic, rebellious, and even a little self centered.
You still believe that you will change the world.
You detest authority and rules. Deep down, you're a non conformist. What Generation Do You Belong In?

Movies:

hmmm? lion in winter, matrix, fight club, a river runs thru it, any brad pitt/robert redford montana movie, serenity, aliens, grifters, go, mr. & mrs. smith, underworld, interview with a vampire, braveheart (yeah, i know, but i AM scottish)supersize me (i met the big mac guy in the detroit airport!!) deadman, blow, libertine, dangerous liasons, room with a view, moonstruck, the devil wears prada, johnny depp anything !!! david lynch, indie films, many many many more. and for the record people, i hate a pat, fake, happy ending. the piano, should have kept the original ending. the one where she DOESN'T make it out of the water. the forced happy. ugh.

Television:

um, don't really care about this one so much. i tivo and slingbox house, bones (i'm sort of into nerds. deal) john stewart and any angel ep with lindsey in it.
You are 93% Aries
How Aries Are You?

Books:

there is no way to quantify this one. i've been reading since i was four years old. took my mother an hour or so to teach me, one day before i started kindergarten. i've never stopped. i've literally read thousands.
What Be Your Nerd Type? Your Result: Literature Nerd

Does sitting by a nice cozy fire, with a cup of hot tea/chocolate, and a book you can read for hours even when your eyes grow red and dry and you look sort of scary sitting there with your insomniac appearance? Then you fit this category perfectly! You love the power of the written word and it's eloquence; and you may like to read/write poetry or novels. You contribute to the smart people of today's society, however you can probably be overly-critical of works.It's okay. I understand.

Heroes:

um, me!! seriously tho, anyone who has the courage to follow a dream in the face of odds, or not so big odds. anyone who has the courage of their convictions and the desire to truly live their life, right out loud, and be true to themselves. and i'm not talking just about the righteous. even people of questionable "morals" who aren't harmful to the general population. anyone who takes life and wrings it for all it's worth. makes a difference, or leaves an impression, scandalous or saintly, it's all good. and me!
