1. I'm wearing purple Crocs with Royal Stewart tartan patterned socks and a man's Hawaiian shirt with palm trees and surfboards on it. I would give the ladies on "What Not to Wear" nightmares and I like it that way.

2. I can see model planes flying outside my office window. Sometimes I get the little helicopters confused with the big ones flying at the Air Base just beyond.

3. I found out Wed. at the dr. I have superficial thrombophlebitis.*

4. There is a DBZ poster on the cube wall behind my monitor at work; it was my coworker's son's and she brought it in for me because he was going to throw it away. Also a Goku alarm clock, because my kids were toddlers at the time I got it, and figured out how to turn the very obnoxious alarm on over and over and over....

5. My second toe is longer than all of my other toes, but my third toe is still longer than my big toe.

6. I just recently got my family into Geocaching - [link] - but we've only found three caches so far. I'm thrilled to see there's a ton of them right near my home and work! A good excuse to get out and go for a walk!

7. I hate beets. There is a picture of me at about six months old, spitting out beets down my chin. My father never remembers this and keeps trying to get me to eat them.

8. I love sea hares - basically a big purple marine slug. I like to pick them up and hug them if they're big enough. This is a strange thing because I am not fond of the big brown slugs in the backyard; they creep me the F out. I still won't kill them though.

*Not serious at all, just an inflamed varicose vein. Sounds like I should be in a nursing home, don't it.

I tag, ummm....wow, I don't have that many people watching me, I'm more of the watcher, but:



You don't have to. Well, has to, 'cuz he's married to me...

I already have a journal here [link] , so you can check that one for updates (I do post friends-only entries occasionally - you'll need an LJ account and to friend me there to read those).

I am only a doodler - a marine biologist by training, so I hope people like what they see here. I was intimidated for awhile by the quality of stuff showing up on the main page, but I see there are other amateurs here, so I'm jumping in.

I'm trying to do something creative on a more regular basis, and like my journal, I hope getting a little feedback inspires me to keep up with it.

I also photograph my spouse's works for his page, since he is a woodworker. Check out his stuff too at

Lookie! I made:
*BioMarina

- a community dedicated to celebrating all marine life, be it animal or plant, real or imagined (we'll even accept freshwater life forms). All art media and skill levels are welcome. Please go check it out!
