I'm looking for two things: friends, and women to date.
With friends I love to talk about our hopes, dreams, and fears, and
about culture, politics, langauge--anything that is a meeting of
hearts and/or minds. I love to play tabletop RPG's, both D&D
and some White Wolf. I like cooking, hiking, and crafting. If you
are interested in any of these things and live in or near Tacoma,
I'd love to hear from you.
As to the dating angle: I'm polyamorous, married, and bi. I've
listed myself here as gay because I'm not interested in dating men
right now, and I apologize if that's inconvenienced anyone.
I'm kind, somewhat hapless, and kinky. I enjoy laughably bad action
movies, but I still want to talk about feelings.
My internal landscape has beauty that I've worked for:
well-arranged trees and flowers, carefully-tended bonsai, little
streams and fountains. And there are the wilds, deep forests where
beasts hunt. So yeah, I've got issues, but I'll be able to warn you
so you see them coming. ;)
Now in Spanish
Aunque el inglés es mi lengua madre, hablo español.
Soy poliamorosa, estoy casada, y busco a una novia. Soy amable,
compasiva, bastante desventurada, y kinky. Me gusta mirar las
películas de acción, buenas y malas (a veces, lo peor es lo mejor)
pero también quiero conversar sobre las emociones.
Adentro, he trabajado a mantener mi jardin. Tengo flores, árboles,
aguas plácidas y bonsai. Al mismo vez, en los bosques se esconden
las bestias, esperando a devorar... Entonces si, tengo problemas,
pero vas a saber cuando vienen.
Si pudiera encontrar a alguien que juegue el Scrabble o juegos de
RPG, o simplemente a alguien que me haría su amiga mejór.
I teach Spanish at a high school in the Puget Sound area. Somehow
I'm herding 150 teenagers towards a goal of Learning Things, and
they generally seem to be doing it.
Now in Spanish
Enseño el español en un colegio, busco a amigos nuevos porque todos
los que tenia se fueron a otras partes, leo, hago joyas y otras
cosas, etc.
Listening, figuring out how to put things together, languages,
making stuff, making people feel good, procrastinating, being geeky

escuchar, construir cosas, hacerte sentir buena
I look younger than I am. I have big boobies (see photo). And for
some reason, I suppose many people see "trustworthy" and "I care
about you" floating over my head because so many strangers have
decided to tell me their life stories at various points. Thing is,
I generally am those things, which means that I also get hit up for
spare change, underage cigarettes (before they know I'm a teacher),
and other such things. Oh well.
Now in Spanish
Parezco mas joven que soy.
Books: Anything by Ursula K. Le Guin and C.S.Lewis (though mostly
his nonfiction), also anything by Issac Asimov. The Kushiel series
by Jaqueline Carey, the collaborations between Mercedes Lackey and
Tom Mallory, and narrative histories like The Dirt on Clean.
Food: Anything. I love food.
Music: I enjoy a lot of music but it's never been super-important
to me. I recently discovered Owl City which is made of happiness
and rainbows.
Now in Spanish
Me encanta leer. Estoy leyendo (muy despacio por la vida que tengo)
un libro de ensayos en la homosexualidad y la transexualidad en la
Edad de Oro de la literatura española; una biografia del Che
Guevarra; y revistas del hemisfero oeste. Tambien me gustan la
ciencia ficcion, la fantasia, y la historia.
