I am geeky, unusual, and strange.
My Self-Summary
I'm a single mother raising my daughter and nephew. I'm a big old
sci-fi fan, who
is really into
Stargate SG-1 and
Stargate
Atlantis and
Firefly. I'm also a pretty big
Edmonton Oilers
fan to boot. In the off-season, I watch the Blue Jays. (So in other
words, I'm heart-broken 12 months of the year. lol) I'm really
geeky and into
computers. (I'm not trying to be
self-deprecating. I really love being geeky and take great pride in
it.)
Currently, I'm a distance
IT instructor that teaches an IT
and basics of networking course to
youth across
Alberta and
Saskatchewan who live in their
First
Nations communities.
Of all the time I've been on this site, I still can't decide if I
want to take it seriously for dating. lol I've been single so long
(no other reason than hanging with the kids is better than going
out and partying), so I'm not sure if I want to go there. But the
quizzes are fun! :D
What I’m doing with my life
I'm currently just doing my best to take care of my kids and get my
A+
certification. I'm not really ambitious enough to get all my
certs. :P
I have previously worked as a
computer technician and want
to continue that. Currently, though, I am an IT instructor, helping
others learn more about computers and eventually become certified
technicians.
I’m really good at
taking care of
my
kids,
computers, graphics and writing
The first things people usually notice about me
I'm told I have a really nice
smile, but I think it's ... I don't know.
Big. :P I guess my
sense of humour is one. And just
how truly
geeky a
girl can get is another one.

I'm adding a tv category here because I watch a lot of it. I
probably shouldn't, it's a bad example for the kids, but it's all
soooooooo gooooooooood ...
Battlestar Galactica,
Stargate
Atlantis,
Stargate SG-1,
The Dead Zone,
Firefly,
Flashpoint,
The Border,
CSI,
Lie to Me,
Heroes,
The Listener,
Dead Like Me,
Boston Legal ... There's
probably more, but that's all I can think of off the top of my
head. And yes, a lot of them are off the air, but that's what DVDs
are for! Yay for boxsets and long weekends in the dead of SK
winters! :D
The six things I could never do without
my kids, computers, my sisters, my friends, my dogs, internet
I spend a lot of time thinking about
my kids,
Stargate, writing, work
Lately, I've been thinking a lot about writing. I used to write a
lot. Nothing major or even very good, but I did write it. I have
found that I barely write at all these days. Which makes me
sad.
So, I have decided that, for the first time, I am going to make New
Year's Resolutions and writing more is one of them. :)
(EDIT: yeah, that didn't go over too well. lol)
On a typical Friday night I am
watching tv and making a big dinner for the kids.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
nothing much
You should message me if
you like talking
sci-fi and computers and sometimes
weird/random stuff and don't mind hearing about kids occasionally
