she is a lesbian, radical feminist, cat lover, bibliophile, non-smoker, unitarian universalist (though she doesn't go to fellowship on a regular basis) and in the process of becoming athletic again. she dreams of being jeanne d' arc and swooping in and saving those that need saved (though she'd rather not be burned at the stake). she is a loyal friend who will do anything she can for those she loves, but she can flakey sometimes when her depression flares up. she is a loner. a southerner self-transplanted to the pacific northwest in 1998 and now believes that it doesn't rain enough here. she's known for her honesty, she can't help it, its the only way to be. she is 4'8" tall, and round. she has natural blonde hair and she also has blue eyes. she is very intense. she hates small and large crowds, she prefers the one on one or the one on a few. she has no idea what she wants to do with her life, though she would like to see more of the world than what she has seen so far (a good part of the continental united states) and she very much wants to be a mother. finally, she has huge crushes on alix olson and carolyn gage (these are from a far).

i've decided to fly into mytilini from athens. 1 hour vs 12 hours by ferry. i'm going to take the ferry back though. i've also decided that if its possible to do a day trip to turkey in the low season i am going to do that. i'm in the process of making reservations to spend a night at the andreas apartments. in mytilini (the port town of the island) i will hopefully stay at the sappho hotel. i'm debating about whether to try to make it back to athens for 3 or 4 days there. its such a big city. but there are really only 2 places i want to go: the acropolis and an international bookstore i've been reading about, other than that its just about walking around and taking the city in. spending more time on lesvos seems to be the thing to do.
