I love not having to drive to work, being able to water my plants or
make a pot of coffee at will, and just plain being at home! I don't
like the fact that I don't get out and meet people and feel very
isolated sometimes.

Marine biology was what I *thought* I was going to go into when I was in
high school, but life had other plans for me. Now, I'd have to give it
some thought.

and love walking in the woods and on the beach. I like classic rock
music but don't like the stereo turned up loud. And after being
separated for 2 years, I'm finding out that it's OKAY to be alone and
have things the way *I* want them! :-)
