“There is no way to happiness — happiness is the way.” - Thich Nhat Hanh (1926-2022)


      


Bookish, infovore, science-junkie, movie-addict mom to a surly teenage girl and adventurous toddler boy, trying to figure out how to balance my loves for family, academia, and the environment in frozen Alaska, where the winter nights are long, the summer days are longer, and a gallon of milk costs way too much. Also, Master of the Run-On-Sentence.


This journal is primarily Friends Only. Add me as a friend and I will likely add you back. I try to update my journal on a weekly basis and read/comment on other journals more frequently than that. Many of my posts involve my opinions on books, movies, tv, and music. My politics are left leaning.


I'm tagging 43 things


My Personality Type is INTP (Engineer - Introverted (I) + Intuitive (N) + Thinking (T) + Perceiving (P))
