About me:

I'm a Rational Inventor (ENTP) or Mastermind (INTJ), depending on my test taking mood, according to the Keirsey Sorter (and Meyers Briggs rough equivalent); an Aquarius; a 6 Life Path wrapped in a 7 Personality in numerology; a gregarious introvert; a quintessential Indigo; a closet Southerner; and I tend to score dead equally across the visual - kinesthetic - auditory spectrum.
I guess that means I've never not heard a black helicopter I wouldn't at least consider, and I'm using all my input channels to plan a benevolent dictatorship which involves the re-discovery of cold fusion and telepathic communication with aliens - although I keep that buttoned up behind an enigmatic hand wave.
I will talk for ages with anyone about all the ideas I've run into, but with very few about my own thoughts - some mistakenly confuse the two and draw all kinds of bizarre conclusions (such as the fact that because I know my numerology profile, I must subscribe to it!). Starving with curiosity, I'm easily entertained, but I prefer very dynamic circumstances, particularly in landscape and culture... I perceive best through difference, acquiring the most depth through breadth and the repetition of patterns in new context.
And really, I'd rather hear about you.
My favorite quote to which I've been recently exposed through a new friend is from CS Lewis'
..The Weight of Glory..:
"I am trying to rip open THE INCONSOLABLE SECRET in each one of you - the secret which hurts so much that you take your revenge on it by calling it names like Nostalgia and Romanticism and Adolescence."
Who I'd like to meet:
*sigh* Don't they mean "Whom"?
Let the forces of serendipity conspire...sadly, name changes may burn bridges, but for anyone seeking me, here I am: Marlena Hanlon, Howell... is there even anyone who remembers me as Harrison?
There are those of you whom I miss or wonder about - the few from school days, a handful of Coasties, friends from here and there, an old flame or two. To name just a few: Carolyn Nersesian (sp?), Lisa Post, Rochida Alfred, Lakisha Boyd, Brian Slie, M. Shannon Bolin, Jennifer Heap, Vickie Prichard, Tom Schur, Dave Richey, Darla Reuter, Dave Glidden, Paul Patterson, Roberta Claus, and Luke - the button maker from Sydney.
