Welcome to my little snippet of the internet!
I can not a promise you great masterpiece of literature here but it could indeed be novel. No fear though, it is quick and nearly painless...nearly.
Spoiler Alert!
There will most likely be an astonishing lack of graphics, pictures or other intense visual content. Some reading may be required! (I have to write because I can not HTML my way out of a wet paper bag but I am getting better!...really!...twitch...)
If you do not wish to engage the following please proceed to the bottom of the page and rate what you will. I will return the gesture. For such is what we do here, is it not? (perry, dodge, stab!)
Now to your regularly scheduled VR page of DOOM (or something like it)
About Me:
I am a thirty something wife and mother of one (who is, at the time of this writing is driving me slightly mad as young ones are want to do. We are learning about vocal ranges!) I am also a stay-at-home mom. For those who poo-poo that I would love to inform them it is a full time job, as in 24-7-365, and I have never worked so hard in my life, so there.
I live in a relationship that enjoys glorious fairy tale status. It seriously disgusts most of our dear friends. Although most will take credit for its beginnings.
I enjoy many past times. Such as:
Motorcycles
Cooking (want to share any tasty dishes?)
Light weight backpacking (I can get freaky with this one)
Hiking
Fishing
Photography
Swimming naked in mountain streams
Flintknapping (if you are curious about this just one ask!)
Movies
Gaming
- LARP
- RPGs( both table top and video)
- I play a mean game of cribbage
- Bloodbowl
- Warhamer and 40k ( on occasion)
Painting models (the miniature variety)
SCA
Vampires and the sort (else why would I be here, eh?)
Theater
World travel
Mythology
History
And if you can't tell, slight touch of sarcasm.
I am sure there are more things but that should give you a touch of inside regarding this humble writer.

Alas we must part for I hear the sounds of a munchkin stirring and in need of a snack!
