I'm a typical suburban wife and mom who's a complete Robsessed, Edwardphile (and yes, I do separate the two) who just can't stop reading fanfic to save my life. I'd spend practically every waking moment reading if I could, save for the fact that I really do love my hubby and kids and we all have to eat sometime. Thankfully, my husband does most of the cooking, so I can get even more reading time in. I'm a huge ExB shipper, so all of the stories on my fave lists are ExB stories. I also use to be a big HP fanfic reader (R/Hr shipper there), but now I seem to be stuck in the Twiverse. I also love music (fairly eclectic mix), chocolate, Thai food and a well-written story. My mission statement is "Love more and spread it around" which I realize is pretty cheesy, but it's still worth a try.

And apparently my family's penchant for making up words has paid off. I am the official (at least by Urban Dictionary standards) creator of the word techversation. Don't believe me? Check it out and also please use it often. It's a handy word. http:///confirm.php?code=ff49b22b18 My goal is to one day get it in the Merriam-Webster Dictionary.

I'm also the not so proud founder of SMUTT: Shitty Mothers United Through Twific
