Personal Information

Born on June 29, my then unsuspecting parents were in for a surprize. They thought they'd had a sweet little girl - turned out I was a tom-boy of the most extreme sort. (I believe I was in high school before my mother managed to get me into a dress without a fight.) I would spend hours playing with my Tonka trucks, but had to be coaxed into playing with dolls.

On top of the tom-boy thing, I was also hyperactive and extremely imaginative...sorry Mom. (Four kids and she still claims 3/4 of her grey hair was caused by me.) Not just drawing on walls and furniture sort of creative imagination (though I did that also), I was the kid who thought of all the dangerous games and stunts that got us in trouble or sent one of us to the hospital. ...today they would call a kid like me "an extreme sport enthusiast", or prime Ridalin candidate.

I tend to be cheerful, active and rowdy, and I love nature - plants, bugs, animals, pretty much everything - except spiders. I spend quite a lot of my time repairing my 80+ year old house. I love playing games; card games, board games, dice games, roll-playing games - anything but head games!
