| My Quiet and Well Behaved Page |
| I guess since this is my page I should say something about me. First...my name is not miriamglitch. When asked "a/s/l?" I generally reply, "old woman in Canada". I'm not old but I am a woman in Canada. Just as a hint: most people don't wish to cyber when you answer this way (although there are some who will cyber with a platypus, given the chance). Did you know that the hind feet of the platypus are poisonous? If you're seriously considering the platypus love-thing this is something you should know. I live on the edge of the middle of nowhere. It's a beautiful edge, but there's no pizza delivery. I live right in town (population somewhere around the 20 mark) where there is a tiny library, a general store, a school, a community hall and sort of a volunteer firehall. I am a small person and other people make fun of my little shoes. I'm addicted to lip goo. I'm a capricorn. Please don't hold that against me. |
| Me |
| My Family |
| I have one sister. She has known me since I was born, seen my good and bad side for for all those years, and still loves me anyway. If I forget the torture I endured at her hands as a child (creepy spiders) I can say she is the best sister anyone could have. Oh what the heck.....she is the best, no matter what. I have a daughter. She was born wiser than me and with more fashion sense. She is brave and has a heart bigger than the great outdoors (which, by the way, she avoids at all cost). |
| The Beasts |
| We have 2 cats. Ryker became somewhat of a house cat when he realized he was on his ninth life. Seriously, I think it's impossible to rahabilitate him. Benny has been with us for a couple of years now. He moved in, thrust himself upon us all and said, "Love me!" So you see, we really didn't have a choice. He's really large and is afraid of sparrows and much else and is really a bitey cat. Oops, I'd better not forget the bridge troll...he's a sweet little guy. |
| My Interests |
| .....are varied (too varied). Not gonna list everything cause I just couldn't. I'm deeply interested in the psychic and spiritual world. I love plants and don't spend enough time in my garden. I like to refinish furniture and do crafts. I paint occasionally and read a whole lot. I love to dance; please do not force me to do the polka or two-step. I have a "nice" voice. Other than that, I am musically challenged and never learned to play an instrument well. I like almost all kinds of music.... almost. Limp Bizkit and Korn are not on my Christmas card list. |

| A daughter-appropriate quote: "She hit me on the head with a rock again." "I think I can confirm that that was my daughter." "Sweet kid" "You have to get to know her, " said Arthur. "She eases up does she?" "No, " said Arthur, "but you get a better sense of when to duck." Douglas Adams, "Mostly Harmless" |
| Gnaw-aw...this is my little gi-irl! Long long time ago and I can still remember. Each and every day is halloween for her even still. The house seems empty without her but she was kind enough to leave a lot of her CD's behind. |
| A universe-appropriate quote: In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move. Douglas Adams, "The Restaurant at the End of the Universe" |
| A sister-appropriate quote: When you can flatten entire cities at a whim, a tendency towards quiet reflection and seeing-things-from-the-other-fellow's-point-of-view is seldom necessary. Terry Pratchett, "Small Gods" |
| There are only four real questions in life: What is sacred? What is worth dying for? Of what is the spirit made? And what is worth living for? The answer to all these questions is "Love". Don Juan de Marco (the movie) |
