My Family both blood and chosen, Massage, Animals (I was a vet tech for many years and still love it), Raqs Sharqi (belly dance),Yoga,costuming (I will note I made SOME of the costumes in the picture section but many are Moresca and a few are from other places, including the black surcoat I am wearing in the halloween pic which my husband made me :). They are purchased I don't want anyone thinking I am trying to claim them as my own :o) ), Renn fairs and many other numerous and varied things!!
mainly here to keep up with old friends but am happy to meet like minded people who are interested in dance and other creative artistic projects.
I will listen to most types of music when I have a choice (which I don't often have with two small kids). I don't like country or pop all that much but I have found exceptions even there on occasion. My favorites are Pink Floyd, Led Zep, NIN, and Smashing pumpkins. I also am becoming a fan of Middle Eastern music through my dance practice.
I tend to like more shocking and or thought provoking movies, some of my favorites are A Clockwork Orange, Pulp Fiction, Trainspotting and the Lord of the rings movies. I am not so much a chick flick kinda girl :P. I will sit down to the occasional horror flick (even the really BAD ones that have no value). I am into the Japanese horror movies or a dumb comedy (the dumber the better).
Don't watch too much TV. I do enjoy the HBO series- I watch most of them in fact. Rome, Deadwood, Sopranos and yes even Lucky Louie. I also watch Inked and Hells Kitchen
I love to read but haven't gotten to read as much since I have had my girlies (except kids books of course I read LOTS of those). Some of my favorites are Stranger in a Strange Land, (almost) anything Stephen King writes, The Last Temptation of Christ, A Clockwork Orange. I also Love the comic books Sandman, and Tank Girl
My Hubby and kids who teach me all about life, love and forgiveness. My Jenny who is brave and fierce and able to accomplish so much with what life hands her. My cousin Diane who has and will always walk to the beat of a different drummer. My profession, which allows me time to center my self while I reach out to others.
