Bio"Without contraries is no progression. Attraction and repulsion, reason and energy, love and hate, are necessary to human existence." - William Blake, "The Marriage of Heaven and Hell", plate 3.
A neurotic library working/bookish girl living in the Portland area seeking a faster way to get to work, more tea, more time to read books, and training partners for saber.
Sometimes she wishes she was either Virginia Woolf, Emily Bronte, or Margaret Atwood. Or at least on a defined path leading towards something, well... anything at this point.
She knows too much about the Victorian period (hurrah Victorian Studies!) and got to put The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen in her Masters Dissertation bibliography.
She used to make music on the oboe and english horn. Maybe she'll try again.
She reads too many webcomics and novels. In terms of the latter, she likes to pretend she's simply a book-besotted Austen heroine. In terms of the former, she's just a nerd.
