| Bio: | Hippie Goth Girl, Grows Up; Sorta.
This is my personal journal/diary. In it are included my thoughts on events of the day, my newbie SCA goings on (in the SCA my persona is Lady Helena Caxton), historical studies, crafting/computer projects, diet/health/exercise, my religious journey (specifically related to being a new UU member), my day to day life, book reviews, and life in general.
If you know me and would like to read it, or if you are someone who just wants to check it out, please add me and I will most likely add you back shortly.
Be warned: I can be overly dramatic on occasion and quite opinionated - though I encourage and engage in friendly discussion and am open to new ideas/facts and viewpoints even though I may not share those interpretations.
I am a bibliophile and book pusher, a lowly library worker/receptionist, and at least for the moment NOT a bookseller (after 8 years of retail book selling). I want to be a librarian/archivist when I grow up or grow older at least. I'm a bit behind career/school wise (I have an undergrad in info science) due to ... a challenging late teens and 20's. I grew a lot and I am where I am, dwelling in a better mental place (for the most part).
I have decided to write reviews of my favorite tomes (primarily non-fiction but with an occasional fiction thrown in) here.
A few of my favorite authors are (and this changes constantly): Mark Twain, Simon Winchester, Lindsey Davis, David Sedaris, Christopher Moore, Douglas Adams, J. R. R. Tolkien, J.K. Rowling, James Loewen, Walter Isaacson, Dave Eggers, Issac Asimov, Janet Evanovich, Douglas Hofstadter, Jean Auel, Henry Rollins, Neil Gaiman, Shakespeare, Paul Rusesabagina, Spalding Gray, Dr. Seuss, Kurt Vonnegut, Norton Juster, Mario Puzo, Mark Danielewski...etc...etc...etc...
I don't really have my music preferences listed in my interests (mainly because there are too many), but if you'd really like to know my tastes they are listed on my myspace page.
Enough already!
