Introduction As a liberal arts major (English graduate student, actually), I must plead the fifth on such things as political leanings (because I get in trouble either way). Beyond that I suppose I like readin' and writin' and 'rithmetic (just kidding). I'm not fond of math, though I've always done it well (unusual for an English person, I know). I'm a cat person (but only in the fall and winter; I don't like cats in the summer and spring when they shed). My favorite color is blue. I have decent musical abilities (enough to sing in church choirs and play the piano for church once in a while). I am thoroughly religious and spiritual, claiming The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as my religion, but I respect all others who seek to better themselves through worshipping a more powerful Being. I'm antisocial, though I do have a few friends. I study Victorian literature (Dickens, Tennyson, Brontes, and the like); I focus on Victorian periodicals, primarily for reasons I haven’t discovered yet. I claim no favorite book (how can I privilege one text over another?), and I’m a feminist as much as I allow myself to be. There’s that. Anything else you want to know?
Interests Reading, Writing, Laughing, Teaching
Favorite Movies Ratatouille, Luther, Harvey, Howl's Moving Castle, Big Fish, The Quiet Man, that's all I can think of right now
Favorite Music Josh Groban, Loreena McKennitt, Mormon Tabernacle Choir, Mozart, Bach, other classical composers
Favorite Books Book of Mormon, Holy Bible, anything Victorian, most fantasy

You're going to the moon! What did you forget to pack?

Nothing! I am always prepared (I grew up with three brothers, all Eagle Scouts, so I know about preparedness). But I might forget my camera. I rarely take pictures of anything. Cameras steal your soul, after all...
