I'd like to introduce you to my family, my hobbies, and my pets! Many of the family pages are in sad need of updating, but please do visit my pages! I am often on my computer writing things, sending email to friends or one of the email lists that I participate in, or chatting online in an IRC chat channel, playing with my bird, snuggling or playing with my dogs and puppies, watching the fish in their aquariums, taking photographs (or organizing the way-too-many pictures, negatives or jpgs, and zillion photo albums), or occasionally going out on a hot date with my hubby!
