About Me

MySpace Layouts
I am creative, and I like to make things. This includes painting, drawing, making clothes, and cooking. I like technology, video games, animals, kendo, archery, sabre fencing, the renaissance faire, fixing computers, science fiction, fantasy, anime, reading series, and collecting things.I like to play the guitar, clarinet, saxophone, keyboard, flute, recorder and drums. I like music to a really wierd degree. I also like humor. I love my family. I have a Wife, 2 kids, and a Father in Law. (To be named at a later date) I have 3 cats - Alex, Sushi, and Missy. Alex is a silky Tortoise-Shell and is the Intelligent Alpha Female. Sushi is a shaggy blue point Siamese/6-toed mix. She is the Skittish but Hands-On hyper-play cat. Missy is a California Ragdoll, she is Marbled colored. She is the Big-Puffy-Also-Sometimes-Alpha-Female, but is mostly just The-Puffy-Talky-Cute cat. There will be many pictures of them.I don't like stupid people. I don't like dirty air. I don't like to touch bugs, but I do like to look at them. I don't like to eat pork, because it always gets stuck in my teeth.
