Well, the first thing my husband and three daughters would tell you is that I've been married for thirty years and have no business speed-dating in the first place. That would be crucial. Besides that?
Here are my loves:
Words, wine, complaining, macaroni and cheese, cats, all-things-zen, alliteration, Dr. Suess, Austen, Tolstoy, Yeats, anything celtic, writing, beach houses, history, and misusing punctuation as I see fit.
Here are my dislikes:
All rodents (especially rats) medications, anxiety, autoimmunity, vertigo, hair loss, bullies, slime, holidays, throwing up, and acupuncture needles placed in my belly button.
Other things you should know about me:
I'm a control freak; or perhaps I used to be before life's circumstances caused me to take a step back.
I suffer from an autoimmune disease called Sjogren's Syndrome.
My three daughters also suffer from autoimmune and rheumatological issues.
The above stinks.
I'm a bit of a couch potato and it shows
St. Patrick's Day is the one exception to my hating holiday rule.
I have a burning desire to publish a book.
I sleep a lot.
I love a lot.
I hurt a lot.
I'm perhaps the only human alive who never saw the Titanic.
I may also be the only human still using an iPod.
I adore Tibetan Sing Bowl Meditations.
Both my cat and dog are perfect.
I'm a bit afraid of doctors.
I'm a bit afraid of everything.
And so I suppose that's it for the nutshell that I live it.
