About meHi. Given that you've stumbled over this direction, I suppose I could tell you a little about myself.

I'm Callie. Married to Gabriel, one preteen daughter (often referred to as C), one small black cat named Poe. I have recently returned to the Dayton area after 6 years and multiple military-related moves. I have a background in Biology: career experience in the microbiology department of an international pharmaceuticals company and some undergraduate work on a biotech degree (which I hope to complete at some point. Life gets in the way sometimes). I like science, and you should, too.

I'm quiet. I don't speak up nearly as often as I should, or as much as I want to. I have dreams and illusions of grandeur. I have a mad desire to be as cynical and witty as Janeane Garofalo. I spend most of my time listening to music while studying, reading LJ, playing video games, or whatever book has captured my attention for the week.

And.. I suppose that's all for now.

About my libraryI like books. I like a lot of books. Simple enough?

My library is going through a bit of overhaul as I prepare to move, and as I convert my collection to digital on my Kindle 2.0. I plan on rescanning most of them when I get resettled in early summer. Thank goodness for my CueCat!
