A short Introduction

I thought I should write a short introduction on myself here. I know all of this info is over on my old diary, where I started writing in 2002, but I’m making a bit of a fresh start here in order to find some inspiration to blog again. So, here goes…

I am a 32 year old female living in Australia. I was doing web design before getting sick in 2005. At first it was my gall bladder, then my liver. For a long time I did not feel well at all. At this point in time my liver is still sick but I actually feel fine, suprisingly.

I have a 20 month old son. He is my world. He is a gorgeous, happy and outgoing little boy and he is adored by everyone around him. His star sign is Leo and already I see that when he grows up he won’t have any social problems. At least, I hope he won’t. He doesn’t seem to be at all introverted like his mum!

I have been with my partner for around 6 years now. We are not married. At this point in time, we have no plans to get married. Why, you may ask? In truth, I don’t know. I’ve never been too interested in the idea. I’m not saying marriage will never happen, but I don’t see it happening any time soon.

Some random facts:

• I grew up on rural acreage and had animals all of my life. Horses, donkeys, goats, rabbits, dogs, cats, birds, rats… Now I have not one single pet. It’s strange not having any pets to care for now but since all of my time is taken up with my baby boy, it’s probably for the best!
• I am addicted to online gaming. Or, rather, I am addicted to World of Warcraft. I’ve been playing since launch. I don’t play nearly as much as I used to, these days I log on to play only when my son is asleep and all of the household chores are done. People don’t realise that games like these aren’t just games. They become a kind of social utility. I log on and chat to people I’ve known in-game for 3 years. These are people I hope that once the game dies (and it will, eventually. All games do) that we will still be able to remain internet friends.
• My favourite colour is purple.
• My favourite movies are the scary horror type, but I can watch almost anything aside from war or musicals.
• My music tastes vary greatly, from classical to heavy metal.
• I love the Wii!
• Erm, what else can I put here… mind has gone blank. I’ll finish this later!
