CURRENT MISSION

To learn and experience new things. To find a mission.

ABOUT ME

I wish I could live longer because there is so much I want to do.
I have never lived without cats until college.
I wish I could see more colors.
I wish I could write REALLY well.
When people ask where I'm from I always give a different answer because I don't know.
I have trouble making up my mind.
I am from the continent of America.
I wish snow was warm.
The world is too big and too small at the same time.
I like people but I need time to myself.
I like my coffee with lots of milk.
I will go out of my way to help people.
Purple has always been my favourite color.

PHILOSOPHY

I think one thing at one moment and another thing the next. I'm constantly learning and re-inventing myself. My personal philosophy is subject to change and under construction.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I played with a baby river otter I met while traveling in Uruguay. A man in a town I was passing through was taking care of it until it was old enough to survive on its own. It moved and walked like a puppy but played like a kitten and chirped like a bird and clearly adored his caretaker. (Now I want one!)

Teach, Learn, Share

I have a big store of bad jokes to share.
Can teach macrame and other crafty things.
I love words. I could share poems, song lyrics, novels etc.
I can share stories of all sorts and would love to hear yours too.
I'm learning to toprope climb.
I'd like to learn more about computers and electronics and also martial arts!
