Happy recipient of a BA in history (don't ask how many trees historians kill in paper revisions) from a top ten university. Happier still since my October, 2009 marriage to the hero of my heart.
Read practically anything I can get my hands on (history, biographies, and English literature being favorites) and usually have the radio turned to the classical station. Traveling Addict (spent a huge chunk of childhood in Japan, visited Europe in college, etc).
Basically, I'm a thankful Christian with libertarian views, a wonderful family, and a hankering for words.
