I'm an aging hippie, and proud of it. MY social justice values are still alive and well, and I have spent 29 years of my professional career working on social justice issues. I ain't no sellout.

Nothing yet, though I'd love to try. Don't have the right camera to pull it off.

Clothing and jewelry are my main weaknesses. I like Carol Little, Nothing Matches, Sacred Threads, Mission Canyon, J. Jill, Coldwater Creek and MORE. I love silver, and jewelry with classic settings of topaz, lavender jade, druzy, lapis, jasper, amethyst, iolite, fresh water pearls... on and on. I buy some cosmetics, curtains, picture frames, shoes. I buy clothing and anime themed items for my 13 year old daughter, and Asian-themed items for her room, including kimonos, pictures, lamps, fans. etc.

Cobalt blue glass, close-up photos of flowers, shells and sea glass, Chinese coins, folk/world/jazz-rock fusion music, famous social justice quotes

English, ,and I make up my own language

Pondering weight loss, listening and singing to music, reading novels, gardening, swimming in my pond in Maine, using a saws-all to cut dead or unsightly limbs from trees - all women should have a saws-all, going to Home Depot with my husband, laughing with my daughter and son, learning hip hop without harming myself.

I got a case of Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever... and I never even went outside. I was bitten by a Brown Recluse spider twice in the exact same place within a year, My car was the only one side-swiped in a long line of parked cars by a woman in a van in a diabetic comma who then overturned the van. I had a fight with a tree and lost. I'm always catching purse handles and clothes on door knobs and loose wires that snag clothing. I get fired from jobs for being too nice or ethical. I love crazy people and don't know why others don't. People yell at me for doing the right thing. I'm ruled by emotion, but I'm actually entirely too logical for the real world, which is going to hell. I made history at the National Institute of Health for crying hysterically when undergoing a biopsy - I traumatized STAFF and heard about myself 8 floors up within an hour. I walked out of a meeting feeling hip, only to find that I had tucked the entire back of my skirt inside my panty hose in the bathroom -HORROR
