BioNot much to say, average person living an average life, looking for excitement and adventure and really wild things.
My 'official' and permanent LJ name is intended to denote that I'm a big fan of the Australian band Midnight Oil. I didn't think through how the name would sound to people who don't know me and before I realized it I had used the handle enough places that I was reluctant to change it. Ah well, when it comes up it gives me an excuse to babble on about the band and their music.
The new title (and 'name') are just little things that make me smile.They will probably be changed shortly. I change them all the time. ETA: I've changed the name and picture lots of times since I wrote this originally, but it is always something that makes me smile.
