she is a lesbian, radical feminist, cat lover, bibliophile, non-smoker, unitarian universalist (though she doesn't go to fellowship on a regular basis) and in the process of becoming athletic again. she dreams of being jeanne d' arc and swooping in and saving those that need saved (though she'd rather not be burned at the stake). she is a loyal friend who will do anything she can for those she loves, but she can flakey sometimes when her depression flares up. she is a loner. a southerner self-transplanted to the pacific northwest in 1998 and now believes that it doesn't rain enough here. she's known for her honesty, she can't help it, its the only way to be. she is 4'8" tall, and round. she has natural blonde hair and she also has blue eyes. she is very intense. she hates small and large crowds, she prefers the one on one or the one on a few. she has no idea what she wants to do with her life, though she would like to see more of the world than what she has seen so far (a good part of the continental united states) and she very much wants to be a mother. finally, she has huge crushes on alix olson and carolyn gage (these are from a far).

spending time with my family has been great. i've gotten to really talk to my cousin silas's mom for the first time. s.o. she's great, facinating woman, so different in values than my aunt j. i'm glad she came down. in hindsight i'm terribly glad that i came. is that in hindsight?

my dad arrived today. couldn't let go of him at all. didn't realize how much i missed him or my stepmother or my brother.

beetle juice is on, i'm hungry, i should be asleep. but i'm hungry. gonna go seek out a snack machine, hopefully i've got ones.

i'm so glad y'all are here. reading your comments made me cry. thank you for caring. it means the world to me.
