About Me

Interesting myspace layouts
I'm pretty normal. If you don't count that I'm a Gamer Chick and my dice hate me. Or that unlike a lot of people I know, I enjoy my job. Or that I don't judge anybody for their beliefs/looks/attempts at shock value, and have learned to accept people and take them as they are. Or that...okay, so I'm not normal. Meh. As Brynners says, "I feel good about that!" ^_^

adopt your own virtual pet!
Also, check out my mythological animal!
You Are a Pegasus
You are a perfectionist, with an eye for beauty.
You know how to live a good life - and you rarely deviate from your good taste.
While you aren't outgoing, you have excellent social skills.
People both admire you - and feel very comfortable around you. What Mythological Creature Are You?

My Interests

I play several table top RPGs, including Shadowrun. For the music that inspires me in the Shadowrun mindset, check out Alarin

I also play Silver Age Sentinels and three different D&D games. Okay, 4. As to D&D, the sound file is the real deal, recorded from an actual game, and I can personally vouch for this being how most game sessions really go.

reading, crochet, sewing, cross stitch, Renaissance Faires

...the list is too long really.

I'd like to meet:

Vin Diesel. Why? To talk about our characters, of course!

Judi Dench? Same reason. No, seriously.

Music:

Anything but rap, and Meatloaf may well be my favorite singer/band of all time as far as entertainment and performance value. He's very theatrical. Yay theater! :)
I'm also a fan of Enya. There's something about her music that inspires.
A lot of my favorites are my Mother's music too, like Fleetwood Mac/Stevie Nicks
Of course, Nora Jones deserves her place too.
The majority of my CDs (when put together in groups of style) are actually Celtic. I really enjoy Loreena McKennitt's style and I'm looking to get Mask and Mirror, The Visit, and anything else she's put out other than Book of Secrets, which I have.

The Princess Bride, Hellboy, League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Arlington Road, The Last Unicorn, Gladiator, Stardust, etc.

Television:

I don't own a tv and really don't mind. However, we do watch Heroes online. Can't wait for the next season!
Plus, I am a Chad Vader fan! Yeah, I know, he's not really on TV. But he could be! Maybe should be...

Books:

The Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan. Sadly, the Master is gone now. Robert Jordan has passed into the light. But someone has been chosen to finish the series based on the notes he left and the sections that were already completed. We should have it in the Fall of 2009.
Memoirs of a Geisha

Good Omens (of course!)
Vampire Hunter D. There are ten so far in English. Number eleven is due out in October. There are at least seventeen in Japan.
Warriors, including The New Prophecy

and many more...

Heroes:

Jesus
Those who worked to save lives September 11, 2001. Those who gave their lives for others. This is why we fight. Never forget. Never.

U.S.A. Presidential Election 2008, a Different Take

A lot of people this year are not impressed with the Republican or the Democratic candidate for President. In fact, more and more I'm hearing how sick of both candidates they are and how they do...

College Girl

Okay, so you know how you say to yourself and others, "Why do I need to go to college? I can get plenty of good jobs without it"?What happens when you decide you want to go anyway? For me ...

Catharsis

I just finished watching Moulin Rouge by myself. I'm now peacefully drained. At times, I need to cry. I have felt the frustration welling up in me for weeks now. At times I would be ...

On the Wonders of Catnip and Sage

The mixture is two teaspoons of Catnip and one teaspoon of Sage. You put them in a coffee filter and close it up with a twist tie. Voila! Home made tea bag. Then you pour about...

Girlfriends

So, lately I've been missing a lot of people. Mostly my girlfriends though - Deb-chan and Micha especially, since they're so far away and I rarely see them. This last trip, I didn't get to...
