Sinister Susanna's

Generic Self-Indulgent Homepage

Welcome to my homepage.  I created this mostly to learn HTML, and to have somewhere to post pictures of me, my friends, and strange and interesting things (strange and interesting things besides myself and my friends, that is).

A bit about me, for the random person who is reading this and isn't already a friend of mine (I'll try not to sound too much like a personal ad, although I think it's inevitable):

I love animals (especially cats), listening to music (metal, goth and punk rock in particular)... You're a True Punk. You know that punk isn't all about studded jackets and mohawks. If you're political, you're actually informed. Most of the stuff you love is from before the 80s, though you know bands like Fugazi kept the spirit going. You Know Yer Indie. Let's Sub-Categorize. brought to you by Quizilla

I also enjoy singing and playing guitar (although I'm not that good at guitar yet, but I'm getting there!), seeing live music, camping, hiking, hanging out and getting goofy with my buds, watching movies (particularly anything by the Coen Brothers or Tim Burton), and reading (particularly historical fiction).  I live in Philadelphia, but have also lived in NYC, New Jersey (yes, I will admit it), and Portland, Oregon.

Here is some more about me, at least according to mindmedia 
 

Sinister One, you are strongly left-hemisphere dominant and a predominantly visual learner, a unique blend of characteristics! (ooh, i am a unique blend of characteristics...but then, i already knew that!) Typical of the left-hemisphere dominant person, you are organized, precise, focused on details and logical. You seek or assign meaning to your experiences as part and parcel of the way that you learn. In general, your approach to life and learning is step-wise and emphasizes the functional and pragmatic rather than the symbolic and abstract. You prefer to place things in existing categories as a way of making them familiar and/or controllable. Combined with this, you are a visual learner. You are active and continuously searching so that you process information rapidly. As a result, you can be constantly organizing and structuring without necessarily needing to verbalize as a way of guiding yourself. You have a unique ability to see what needs doing and to get it done.

The predominance of your visual learning style implies that you tend not to be reflective and may not pick up on auditory cues including your own "inner voice." (ain't dat de truth).  Frequently you may find that you can "see" where the other person is going before she/he gets there and in this way can be impatient with roundabout language. Overall, you may find yourself driven and distracted. There is a sense of excitement that attends this combination but also a sense of frustration. You can have well-defined goals without the ability to articulate them to yourself, let alone others. You can "see" where you are going but not be able to "tell yourself."

And this is where you can find me in hell, if you're ever looking for me.  You can find out what level of hell you're going to by taking Dante's Inferno Test...

So, according to this, I am a Trecherous, Lustful Heretic.  Excellent.

So, what's a generic homepage without pics?

Me in Maine after a very long car ride (you can see how happy I am to be finally out of the car).
