About me

When things went well, I blogged. When they went badly, I blogged. I tried not to sugarcoat.

Hi!

I love music more than anything, but I also enjoy reading, traveling, the beach, nature, and animals.

More random things about me:

  • I don’t consider myself a social person.

  • I’ve been blogging off and on (mostly on) for over 20 years.
  • I’m autistic.
  • My favorite movie is Psycho.

What Astrology Says About Me

I’ve been seriously studying astrology for a few years now. My chart fits me well, but of course, I raise my eyebrow at some of the astrology stuff, like being a good communicator. But here’s a view of how the sky, the stars, or astrology sees me (without mentioning the planets):

You thrive on stability, comfort, and security especially in the material and emotional sense. You’re loyal, dependable, and gifted at building something lasting. Your inner world is curious, restless, and lively. You process emotions through talking, writing, or analyzing situations from multiple angles. Your outward personality is sensitive, empathetic, and intuitive. People may see you as compassionate, artistic, or even mystical. Your thinking style is practical, methodical, and deliberate. You like to process slowly but thoroughly. Once you form an opinion, it’s hard to sway you.

⁠Language is not normal or natural for me. I don’t default to words—I default to frequency and vibration. Meaning arrives as pressure, resonance, dissonance. Writing is how I translate that into something legible, and it is laborious every single time.

    • Hi
      Yes I have the Fire. I love it but I read on my keyboard kindle more since it is lighter. The fire is great if you also want to play games (words with friends etc,) and use other apps. I use my Fire everyday and would recommend it to everyone! 🙂

      • Thank you. : )
        I’m really considering getting one in a month or so. I mostly will use it to read I think. Not sure yet…I know my grandson will love it though for his ‘bubble guppies’ .. : )
