More about me

I am a strong independent woman who started out life as a very shy person, but slowly over time turned myself in to a successful person. I am single, and although it was not always the case enjoy my independence.

I have spent most of my life working with computors in some capacity and enjoy what I do. I have a good sense of humor and one cat.  The sense of humor helps with the cat.

Activities

Reading. I am trying to get back and do more crafty things. Sudoko. Singing - even though I cannot carry a tune.

Favorite Charities

My favorite charities are ones that I hope help people get back on their feet. I send to CRS and Oxfam for overseas relief and the Boston Food Bank. I also like the Natures Conservancy and World Wildlife Fund. I have a soft spot in my heart for the (Boston) Globe Santa, because in my early career, I worked for the welfare departement, and always remember one woman who was so excited at the wonderful toys her kids would receive that year because of them.

Favorite Music

I love music even though I can't carry a tune. I listened to folk music a lot when I was young as well as rock music. However, I still like to listen to some new music, usually more independent labels, and not the canned music so prevelant these days. Favorite songs. Mr. Bojangles (JerryJeff Walker). Today (Jefferson Airplane). On the Way back home (Buffalo Springfiled). Wild Wild Heart (Bill Staines). Just Like Heaven (the Cure).

Favorite TV Shows

I only watch two fiction shows regularly. Bones and How I met your mother. I really like the Naked Archiologist, Mystery Diagonsis and Myth Busters.

Favorite Movies

You've Got Mail, Legally Blonde, Holiday (Cary Grant and Kathryn Hepburn), Crossing Delancy, any Audry Hepburn film.

Favorite Books

Amusing Ourselves to Death and The Disappearance of Childhood by Neil Postman. Mary Higgins Clark books and the Spencer books despite the violence.

Favorite Places

Fruitlands Museum in Harvard Mass. Germany, especially Nuremburg. Italy.
