Bio
I love learning and exploring new things, especially history or science. I love to socialize with friends especially over a fun board game, or a good debate and discussion. I also have gotten back into video games, and currently have learned to play Warcraft with some RL Friends I currently playing a Blood Elf Pally, but also have a Troll Hunter :)

I enjoy starting and running clubs and organizations. I enjoy reading and watching some movies and small amounts of TV, but prefer to spend my lax time with people if I can. I do a lot of desktop publishing and enjoy fiddling with computers and I run a Mac, Linux, and Windows machine.

I do a LOT of bartering and trading. Merchants run on both sides of my family, but my love of the Haggle as an Artform is probably hails from deep in my DNA from my Slavic/Lithuanian Jewish Merchant heritage. Haggling is so Old World. And Life of Brian :)

I have done many different things in my careers and enjoy the variety of different sorts of jobs. I have worked in broadcasting, management, education, eldercare, and working with the disabled. My favorite, though, is running my own business and I miss it alot because I had to stop this when my husband died. I love arts and crafts, and enjoy sculpting, beading, paper scrapping, and graphic design/professional publishing.

I enjoy music a lot and listen to celtic rock, folk and filk, world music, rock and blues, and also enjoy comedy and some podcasts. On TV I enjoy science programs, cultural programs, and certain fun comedies and sci fi such as Doctor Who, Futurama, Heroes, Torchwood, Jon Stewart Daily Show, Graham Norton, Wait Wait Don't Tell Me, and Whose Line is it Anyways. And I love animals!

I am proud to be step-mom to a wonderful lady and two great active rambunctious toddlers just like their granddad!
