Introduction I love life, Seattle, the beach, myself. I fall in love regularly--with moments, things, people. I am a jaded optimist whose been around the world (twice). I've studied on the banks of the Charles and Yangtze rivers, and the shore of Lake Washington. I love mysteries and puzzles. My friends tend to be sci-fi and kung fu geeks. The past few years, I've been learning about marine life, yoga, ayerveda, playing bridge, and most recently remembering how to drive a stick shift.
