I am 30+ Libra (w/ Leo rising) and a Rat born in the hours of the Tiger; writer, amateur photographer, a single mom, a daughter, a sister, a friend and an eccentric individual.
BTW, the pics I use here (and in my gallery) are taken by me and copyrighted by me unless otherwise noted.
Please also note that I have a thing about eyes, especially my own...
This pic is a portion of some writing I did on the apt bldg I lived in last year with my son's chalk... BIOpics of my friends, family and other things
(I'm so lazy, but it's much easier putting in links so if you are really curious you can satisfy your curiousity fully) ;>
I love all types of music but prefer dancing to old school goth and industrial. I read alot, mainly sci-fi, fantasy and horror.
I take a ton of pics with my digital camera (which you'll know if you went to my pic site).
I love cats and am indifferent to dogs.
I have classified myself as a pagan for a number of years but wonder if even that is too much of a label and am rolling around "spiritualist" as my new self-imposed label.
I am a survivor.
Got the diagnosis on my son on Dec 16th 2004 and he is autistic though they think he's mildly so and will be higher functioning...
My adoptive Mom died of cancer on Nov 2, 2004 and words cannot convey how I feel about that. Though I do a lot of various emotional purging with my poetry.
I may also write about how I feel since I ended my marriage in January of 2005.
I also tend to be rather opinionated and have no qualms about sharing those opinions and it's possible you've come here after reading a comment I've left on your work or something I've said in a forum...
P.S. I write #1 for myself, mainly to purge things that poison me (so it's usually dark stuff) and with the occassional sweetness or humour-filled one thrown in. I also write and share my work so that other people who may feel the same or similar to the way that I do, whether or not they've had the same life experiences, can realize that they are not alone in this world and that other people do understand.

Buen suerta!..The people I admire most have to create themselves from ashes,over and over again!..Probably because the Wheel has written me similarly...(Fugazi:You will do what looks good to you on paper...We will do what we must!must!must!/You carry out your noble actions...We will carry... our noble scars!)again...Good luck!

I moved myself before and it stinks, I'd offer to help you pack and move Cara if distance wasn't an issue. Good to see you writing again. Good luck with the move. ~hugs~

thank you my dears :) I do hope that I'll be more inspired once I'm in my own place. I have a theory that I may be inspired the first weekend I don't have Torin (when he goes to Jay's)...

Dear Cara, I am so sorry and so ashamed I am this far behind on visiting friends galleries. I have been so swamped with everything. The get well card slowed me down a lot. I have answered over 5000 IMs. Im so proud of our community! So many wonderful caring people! But it has left me terribly far behind on everything. Ive got 1500 e-bot notices Im trying to work through. Im going visit all the current ones as quickly as possible and then work on the backlog as time permits. It will take me a while, but I will eventually catch up and will in time visit everyones postings. Until I can get caught up, Im gonna spend my gallery visiting time looking and enjoying and try not to type as much as I usually do. I hope everyone understands that I am running as fast as I can. Good luck with the move! I know it is a huge undertaking, but I'm sure you will enjoy you new home so much. And - should you need any assistance in keeping the "wee man" focused and on the job, I have several excellent prods to help him get the point! (Seems like the guys are always lying down on the job!) And I know the feelings you're relating in the poem. I've been going through some of that "wondering about everything" myself! Hopefully everything will work out for everyone!! Excellent work and best of luck!! Love, Meredith
