About Me

I'm a Foreign Service Brat/3rd Culture Kid, Theatre Techie and Designer. I got into the SCA and Cosplay as it allowed me to make costumes without the time requirements of being part of a show! Jokes on me. My most recent (coming up on year 9) obsession is my Glowforge laser.

I'm a red headed, right handed, lgBtq, ND, IceHockey playing, happily married, polymath 😄

I love things that are or have to do with:
purple
horses
cats
ice hockey soft/fuzzy
sparkly
miniaturized
over-sized
shiny
interesting
new to me
absolute must see/have/do/try/what evers!

I don't love things that are:
wool
scratchy
flowery
pink
overly-girlie
delicate

I'm not a scrapbooker or a crochet'er/knitter but I am a woodworker and laser crafter - and I've got years of abandoned hobbies I'm willing to share the stuff from :-)

I am trying to keep a lid on the amount of stuff in my life, so hearts will be given for consumables, intangibles, or pass-on-ables (music, books, food stuffs, craft supplies, electronic files, stuffed animals, knick-knacks, boxes, paper). On the other hand if it's the thing that you think is coolest and everyone should know about/have one I'll be thrilled to check it out!

I do ADORE getting mail - letters/postcards/whatever!

Favorite Television

Doctor Who, Leverage, the Marvel universe, and far too many shows that get canceled far too quickly.

...of course I only watch TV every once in a while :-P

Favorite Crafts

Sewing
Wood working Photography
Engraving ...I love to try my hand at anything and everything!

Favorite Books

McHugh's Assembly & Hellequin, Kingfisher's Paladin's Hope, Novik's Tremeraire, McCaffrey's Pern, Martin's Game of Thrones, Aspirin's Myth Inc., Anthony's Incarnations of Immortality, Potok's Chosen, Brook's World War Z, Follet's Pillars of the Earth, Buford's Heat, Setterfield's Thirteenth Tale, Foster's Flinx/Humanx Commonwealth, Robinson's Sword Dancer, fantasy, sci-fi, and far more cheesy romances than I'd like to admit.

Favorite Music

Classic Rock, 80's New Wave, Country, Hard Rock, Pop, Musicals...
Duran Duran, Elvis, Tom Lehrer, Killers, ACDC, Les Miserables...
so many singers, so many bands, everything from 60s folk to rap finds its way into my collection.

Favorite Movies

5th Element, Ever After, Strictly Ballroom, Highlander, Rob Roy, Mystery Alaska, Indiana Jones, Holy Grail, Legally Blonde, Herbie, Black Stallion, The Day After Tomorrow...
Costume dramas, love stories, comedies, psychological horrors, cop movies, and any movie where they destroy (or seriously maim) the planet.
