Introduction This is my ranty blog. I live in the DC area with my boyfriend and our rescued cats. We want more animals, but don't have the space or resources for them right now. I help where I can. I'm a cyber_hippie. I live fully in the modern age and take advantage of its fruits, but I do so in as green and frugal a way as possible. I recycle and reclaim a lot. I participate in the (legal)underground economy. I barter, use Freecycle, reclaim, dumpster dive, and just generally try to help others out. I'm also a writer, photographer, artist/crafter, and animal rescuer. Art and animals are both a significant part of my life.
Interests art, photography, writing, film, animal welfare, animal rights, progressive politics, food and cooking, veganism, green living, voluntary simplicity, ecumenical, Paganism, Wicca, reading, socializing
Favorite Movies comedies, horror, speculative fiction, historical drama, s/f, chick flicks, documentaries. I am a HUGE supporter of independent film, as I am an aspiring screenwriter.
Favorite Music metal, new age, rock, psy trance, ambient, classical, some rap and R&B. Basically, anything but country.
Favorite Books Too many to list!
