I am a 43 year old mother of four, and grandmother of two. I own and operate a small computer repair business in rural Colorado. Business is on the slow side, since it IS a rural area, but I get enough work to keep me busy. Most of the time I work out of my home, and when I’m not working you’ll find me playing with my pets, knitting, surfing the net, or playing World of Warcraft.  I meditate on a semi-regular basis… or at least try to.

I enjoy reading Science Fiction and Fantasy, listening to Classic Rock, playing video games on my computer, and watching educational TV.

Cast of Characters:

Pets:

• Apollo - Border Collie. Head dog of the house.

• Ares - Border Collie. Apollo’s littermate.

• Karma - Tuxedo Cat. She was the first pet, and thinks that she should still be the only one.

• Shiva - Himalayan mix. The spoiled brat of the house. He believes the world should bow down to him, and him alone.

• Alley Cat - Norwegian Forest Cat mix. The grand old dame. She is the benevolent overseer of everyone in the house, but you MUST follow the rules.

• Ozzy - Manx/Siamese mix. The kitten. He loves everyone. Dogs, cats, people.

People:

• Kaessa - aka Andrea. Just me.

• Brian - My dear sweet husband. Not only does he put up with all my crap, he loves me dearly.

As you can see, the pets pretty much run the house. I’m in charge of the dogs, he’s in charge of the cats, and Alley Cat is in charge of us all.
