Eos: Goddess of Dawn

Because she had lain with Ares, Aphrodite caused her to be perpetually in love.

About Me

Well, the chinese horoscope has *this* to say about me:
"I am the seasoned traveler Of the Labyrinth.
The genius of alacrity,
Wizard of the impossible.
My brilliance is yet unmatched
In its originality.
My heart's filled with potent magic
That could cast a hundred spells.
I am put together
For mine own pleasure.
I am the Monkey."
Seems pretty apt.
Sexy, cool, wicked smart and unique amongst all women you know. Someone once called me a "fractal enchantress". 'nuff said.
I'm also extremely happily married to the coolest guy ever.
I'm not much of a "MySpace"er and only created my profile in response to a challenge in a meme that went around on LJ. I dunno how much I'll actually post here, so if you *really* want to hear me natter on you'll have to find me there instead.
