The word "
curiousity" pretty much sums me up. I
love to learn, go
new
places, see new things, taste new food, meet people I connect with.
I guess that's why I'm here :-) I love my two "kids" and my animals
and hate rednecked yokels. I am a wolf therian. I love pretty much
anything outdoorsy, including camping, hiking, fishing, what have
you...I just don't get to do it much.
I have a vegetable garden. I hate weeding it, but there's something
very spiritual about watching a seed turn into something yummy.
Taking college courses that will hopefully help get me into
Medical School,
parenting my teenagers,
howling in the
woods, and just generally staying way too
busy
Expressing my thoughts and emotions with my face. It makes me a bad
liar, so I don't even try.
Making spaghetti, or any other tomato dish.
Interpreting what
animals are trying to 'say'.
Worrying
(a)Sword of Truth series by
Terry Goodkind. ABVH series by
Laurell
K. Hamilton. Earth's Children series by
Jean Auel.
Tolkien . I recently read Contact by
Carl Sagan, and
this guy is my frigging hero--have to get more of his stuff.
(b) All-time favorites are Conan The Barbarian/The Destroyer, and
the Tarzan movie with
Christopher Lambert. Other
than that, there is a long list of movies I love. You'll just have
to ask.
(c)
Weird Al ,
Phil Collins, Peter Gabriel, Peter Frampton,
Def Leppard, Metallica, many varied
others old and new. I'm not huge on country or rap, but there are a
few songs in both genres I find tolerable.
(d) I love food. Almost any food. I'm not a vegetarian, but would
eat that way more often (hey, it's healthy, right?) if I could
afford it and someone else did the cooking. There's a restaurant in
Ottawa called The Green Door that makes me drool just thinking
about it. That said, I crave bloody hunks of meat fairly
frequently. My favorite MEAL is a turkey dinner with all the
trimmings.
Besides the obvious? My kids. Learning. My animals. The forest.
Bodies of water (preferably the ocean, but even a creek will do in
a pinch). My toothbrush. Shampoo.
Everything. my brain flits from one subject to the next, often
faster than my mouth can catch up (thankfully)
If I'm not working, I am probably watching a movie and drinking
beer.
I sometimes sleep with a stuffed animal I've had since I was six
days old.
Something about my profile strikes a chord. I'm looking for people
I can relate to.
