Welcome to my site.
I'm a music geek. I'm also into art. Math. Science. Baseball. Fine spirits. Herbology and flowering plants/trees. Food made by people, not factories. Food made by myself, on occasion. Animals. Football. Various mythologies and cultures. Absinthe. Weaponry. Dungeons & Dragons. Chainmail. Puppies. Hockey. Some of my favorite things, in no particular order:

On the creative front, I write lyrics and/or poetry, some dark short stories, and I draw animals in pen and ink and on my computer with the mouse. My art is on my facebook page and most of my poetry is here. I've also written a novel, which I may actually edit and try to send out to publishers someday. Maybe.
I love animals.
My pets are a huge part of my life. I love spending time with them, and just having them around me.
