dorcus's Journal

Taken from my first entry:

mood: amused

music: You're The One, You're The Sunshine -- PotUSA


I resisted for as long as I could, sighting how "sell out" a LiveJournal was -- but when your bestfriend gets one... what's a girl to do?

So, what's with the name, you ask? Dork-ass? No, but thanks for asking. Dorcus was an old character I used to play a long time ago on a now defunct game. She was charming, she was witty, always knowing the right thing to say to win the other side's affection... okay, or maybe she was a snot-nosed kid who didn't know when to shut up. I figured it an appropriate handle. For the curious, I originally grabbed 'Dorcus' from Robert Heinline's Stranger In A Strange Land.

Is this going to be a tell all into my life? Probably not. What it will be, though, is a peek into my day to day, and a way for friends to keep tabs on how I'm doing (and vise versa).

I am thirty years old and divorced. My husband left me while I was in the hospital for my best girl friend, so no, it doesn't just happen in movies. I am bipolar type II and want to be a housewife when I grow up. I cater to three cats and volunteer at the National Cat Protection Society (though I had my girls before I started to work with NatCat. I swear!) and my local library. I went through culinary school only to find out I didn't want to be a head chef. I like to read, write, and play video and roleplaying games.

This journal is Friends Only. If you feel you should be added to the list, you'll know the appropriate means in which to contact me. Stalkers are scary. Been there, done that, thank you!
