My name is Angela D. I'm a 31 year old administrative specialist at a domestic violence shelter in Central Illinois. I have two guinea pigs, Chloe and Isabel, though I love animals in general. I'm pretty liberal, though I have some conservative leanings. I'm a fan of President Obama. I am pro-choice, pro-death penalty, pro-gun ownership, and pro-freedom of religion (and from it if that's what someone so chooses). We don't have to agree on these subjects, but please don't expect to change my mind on them.
Around this blog you're likely to find a lot of original writing--poetry and haiku, essays, general blog posts about things that inspire me or upset me or things that I'm trying to work out, possibly some fiction. Photography. Art. Links to other people's sites who inspire me in some way. Music, book and TV/movie recommendations. A mishmash of a lot of things, basically.
Welcome.
