I will not give my name... but know that I have many, among them Fayre Aiden, Toireasa Moore, the loofa, the spiritual tissue, and the spiritual stain. I am very active in my home church, spending free time singing in praise band, helping set up for festivals, playing in the handbell choir, acting as a youth leadership member and small group leader, and simply loving God. I am now 20 years old and a sophomore at BCC Melbourne, finishing my AA degree and majoring in Religion - Youth Ministries.

The only reason I am not studying forensics is b/c I suck at science. ;-) Otherwise, I am completely obsessed with CSI! I own seasons 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 on DVD, read and write CSI fanfictions (obviously), beta for other writers, read and own the CSI novels, read and own the CSI graphic novels, own the CSI: Companions, own the CSI soundtrack, own a limited edition 100th episode hat, have an autographed photo of William Petersen, have an autographed photo of Paul Guilfoyle, have an original script autographed by Gerald McCullouch (Bobby D), have my own roll of crime scene tape, belong to a CSI: RPG site (on which I am very active), met my boyfriend on said CSI: RPG site (on which our characters are married), have seen every episode ever made at least twice, can name an episode from a quote and tell immediately who killed who and why in the cases, take quotes from the best episodes, watch reruns on Spike TV and the WB, know the backgrounds of all the characters, know the life stories of the cast, plastered my high school planners with pictures of cast and charaters, make collages with screencap photos, know close to everything there is to know about the show (can't actually say I know everything unfortunately), managed to get my psychology professor hooked on the show, headed a club in high school called The CSI Sisterhood including all my girlfriends who were obsessed with the show, read forensic journals, and have my own CSI websites... Come visit! I can even take your birthday, translate it into season and episode, and give you a specific quote! I won't say that CSI is my life, but it comes pretty damn close!

Out of all the characters, I'd have to say that I most closely resemble Sara. I outshone many of my peers in high school, and I tend to bury myself in whatever it is that I'm doing, if only to avoid acknowledging the fact that I suck at most social situations. People confuse me and I have vowed to not become like some of the people in my life. I never dated well, and many of the guys I've liked have either treated me like crap, or like I don't exist, so I can totally relate to Sara in the social aspect of her life. However, I have also vowed never to turn to alcohol as a solution to a problem. I realize that Sara is not a drunk, but let's just say that although I sympathize, I did not approve of her choices at the end of 4th season.

As for my stories, while all of my plots are completely original, I do enjoy reading others' works to get ideas. I will always do my best to present a mental image worthy of an episode to my readers, while still keeping to the plot. I generally believe in short chapters - they are easier to update, and they leave the reader in suspense. If you don't like it, don't hesitate to tell me, but know that it probably won't change. Also, I don't have a beta, so any mistakes are my own... plus I type fast, so I'm sure there are plenty. If you have any questions that you want to ask me personally (as in not over this site), IM me! My Yahoo IM is thespiritualstain.

Finally, I'd like to thank my favorite CSI Sister for all she has done in my life. Alathea Aiden, we are closer than close, and you were there for me when I've needed you most. My Acushla, my friend, my sister in all meanings of the word, I love you and wouldn't trade our friendship for anything. Thank you for your encouragement and for your pushiness, for without it I wouldn't be an author or anywhere near the kind of person that I am.

WARNING: If you are reading my stories, you will encounter massive amounts of GSR! If there are ever any other pairings, it would be Catherine and Warrick, or between new characters.
