About Me

I’m a 40(ish) mom who lives in California (in the San Francisco Bay Area).  I have wonderful partner whom I want to marry, if it ever becomes — and stays — legal.  We have a beautiful, active 3-year old son who keeps us on our toes.  I work as an Employee Benefits/HRIS Analyst for a large company in San Francisco.

I grew up in the Washington, DC, area.  I spent three years in Germany in the 80s, serving in the US Army.  I spent three years living in north Florida and I moved to California in 1998.  I’ve been here since, mainly in the Bay Area but with a three-year (hmm, a theme) stint in Los Angeles.

My interests are wide and varied — politics, music, Broadway musicals, Manchester United Football Club, the Washington Redskins, reading (novels and biographies) and movies, to name a few.  I’ve been something of a political junkie ever since arguing with my father about politics when I was a child.

I despise political correctness; I think it’s taken too much out of the debate.  That doesn’t mean I enjoy things or words that are offensive; I don’t.

So welcome!  Welcome to my little corner of the Internet. It holds my musings on whatever comes to mind — politics, gay marriage and gay rights,  soccer, my son, Northern California, and whatever else strikes my fancy. I hope you’ll read what’s here. Please feel free to comment!
