First-year boomer, mother of 3, born-again Gnostic. After almost 40 years of living in places that were more or less urbane, I moved back to the tiny town in northwest Louisiana where I was raised. When I want more respect, I tell people I'm from EXTREME south Arkansas, which should tell you a lot. Politically, I'm a liberal democrat, though you'll note that I capitalized neither word. I only filled in this bio because it's required. I prefer that you discover me directly, through conversations, and that I discover you the same way. I'm much too lazy to maintain a website -- I have enough time drains in my life.
