First thing u outta know about me is that i am a non-op transsexual (meaning I haven't had "the surgery" yet). I've been living full-time as a woman since January 12, 2007, and on HRT (hormone replacement therapy) since October 2006. You know, the whole "born in the wrong body" thing. U kewl with that? Kthen, read on...

I live in the insanely awesome city of Madison, WI and love life as a single girl. Some of my fave things to do are hanging with friends, hitting the clubs, shopping, bike riding, fitness training, MMA and exploring the hive-mind of the interwebs. Always interested in meeting people from any part of the gender-spectrum. :)

I do my blogging over at LiveJournal under the same user name, have a look if ya want, not all entries are public though...

Want to know more? Just ask!

I'm finally living the life I was meant to live, and have lots of catching up to do. My social calendar is often full and I'm currently in an open poly relationship (I'm definitely not cut out for monogamy).

My latest passion is grappling and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and I've been working out and training hard. Not that I have much choice, my trainer is also my boyfriend... ^_^

Yeah, so, anyway, it can be challenging balancing my personal and professional life (I tend to err on the side of fun :)

I have a tendency to under-value myself, so it's challenging to answer a question like this. Empathy I have no lack of, to the point of putting other peoples needs above mine. But still, I can be good at getting what I want, if I really really want it.

People tell me I'm a good photographer. Last spring I bought a dSLR and have found it to be a wonderful outlet for expressing my emotions and the way I see the world. Check my stuff on Flickr under the same username if so inclined.

I'm a femme tech geek who spends way too much time online, thanks to my crackberry. If there was a neural interface to the net I'd be waiting in line for it! :p

Professionally I'm an A/V technician and am damn good at it. I'm the go-to girl for keeping videoconferencing systems and such up and running.

Uh, I wonder if I should mention that I'm really good at kink? Hmmm, hafta think on that before writing anything... (did I just say that out loud?)

Peeps say I haz a nice smile...

...but it seems the interwebs consumes too much time for me to read paper books anymore...

Food, yes, anything spicy! I cook a wicked Thai curry, and enjoy most any ethnic foods. Culinary fire is a wonderful source of much-craved endorphins!

Friends, my mind, my Blackberry Storm, perpetual internet connectivity, mental stimulation and endorphin rushes. (in no particular order)

...what to write here...

Out clubbing, at a party, or chilling at home.

OMG, I don't even know where to start! :p

you are reasonably sane (relative to myself), appropriately intelligent, splendidly kinky, or if ya just feel like it.
