my tangerine-flavored life

I like cats, anime, sci-fi, purple, Doctor Who, Sherlock, rainbows, zombies, steampunk, Primeval, Scott Pilgrim, David Bowie, dinosaurs, history, Jurassic Park, X-Men, The Walking Dead, My Chemical Romance, Hanson, The Ramones, Edgar Allen Poe, comic books, vintage stuff, poetry, romantic gothic stuff, dark humor, Edward Gorey, whimsy, Corgis, crafts, art, punk music, Japanese stuff, Harry Potter, Dune, House, Godzilla, Stargate SG-1, Star Trek, Criminal Minds, NCIS, Matthew Gray Gubler, etc. I enjoy the works of Lewis Carroll, Madeleine L'Engle, Michael Crichton, and Jewel Kilcher. I draw, write, and am a little strange. I'm happily married. My socks and earrings never match. I always wear knock-off Converse trainer shoes that I've put my own designs on. I enjoy nostalgia, pastalgia, tea on Tuesday afternoons and wearing my inner child on my sleeve. My heart is made of kaleidoscopes and chocolate oranges. I operate under the stern belief that life requires flavor and that flavor is tangy orange disguised as a strawberry, being that it's filled with beautiful colors, a surprise before the inevitable let down, but the sweetness that follows.
