My life is a pocketful of rainbows.

So, here I am...
***This blog was Established 2005***
And I am slowly reestablishing it.

I love English Lit! I have a fascination with puns, satire and tropes. I relish sharing the latest logic puzzle I've found. I advocate for education reform. I read Spanish much more fluently than I speak it. I know a lot of German. I dabble in SEVERAL languages .... including writing, history and knowledge of cultures. I am very interested in urban farming and self-sufficiency. Huge Douglas Adams, Roger Zelazny and Piers Anthony fan. I like reading Stephen King/Richard Bachman. I could spend hours with Terry Brooks and Shannara. T.S. Garp and I would get along famously. Avid Armchair Traveler ... especially Italy and Mongolia. Miicroadventures rock! I homeroast green coffee beans ... my fave are those from Chiapas, Mexico. I try new teas and those from Scotland make me smile. Friends and family are AWESOME!

I hope that something made you smile today!.

-----Woman dies after trying to scale the border fence into Arizona. This had to be a horrific thing- she was wearing a climbing harness and ended up hanging upside down. A word used to describe the incident was "ensared!"
"A border fence between Arizona and the Mexican state of Sonora in Douglas, Ariz."
(I am seeing a lot of sites not crediting this photo. I am pretty sure it is Adriana Zehbrauskas for The New York Times.)

-----The town she was coming from is generally known as more well-off and with a lot less violence. Douglas, Arizona is a "gateway" to Mexico and probably, from its history, has some architecture from the early 1900s. Maybe this lady still had some family history in the area and wanted to return or be reunited with people??
