Interests
I'm 38, married, with 2 sons. My wife is my hero. ------------------------------------------- For amusement, I like TV shows such as Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Go, Joss Whedon!), Firefly, and Battlestar Galactica (yes, I'm a geek). I like unusual music of all sorts: Bauhaus, Ani Difranco, The Cure, Depeche Mode, Bill Miller (Native American), Rage Against the Machine, etc. And I'm about as left-wing as they'll allow in Oklahoma: anti death-penalty, pro-gay rights, environmentalist, in favor of universal health care, and a big believer in diversity and human rights. I'm religious, but not part of the conventional Oklahoma religious right. ------------------------------------------ I'm a mixed-blood Ojibway (Chippewa) Indian who still participates in traditional cultural ceremonies as part of my personal healing from trauma work. My pictures page has some images that represent my Ojibway heritage. I have degrees in art, human physiology, behavioral science, and social work.

Hug
Thanks Matt... I'm sure I will come back to decompress, too. My journals "tell all", lol. That panic attack I had publicly, although sucked major, helped me realize a lot. Back to facing the boggarts (yes? Did I spell that right? lol) and insisting on it. Thanks for the support. REALLY needed it today.
