raketje // ex-pat . wife . musician . pa . cat mommy . dog lover . shopaholic . cancer
I am an American ex-pat living it up in east London with my fabtastic hubby, gizzard, our vast array of aquatic friends and our cat, Pilly. I moved to England from Portland, Oregon in 2004, and have also lived in Liverpool and Reading (oh, and Rome very briefly).
I dig crazy people and ancient stuff, and did a couple degrees in Archaeology and Roman History. I'm also a musician, kind of. I used to play guitar and sing (opera/musical theatre). I put all that on hold for a long, long time, but I'm getting back into it.
I am a Cancer, with Capricorn rising. I never really gave a toss about it until I met my husband, but have since been educated in the ways of astrology and have learned quite a lot about myself (and others!) in the process.
I strongly support the following causes: mexican food, Northwest microbreweries (I miss Mirror Pond!!!), drunken late-night taco bell runs and the Nordstrom half-yearly sale. I also like playing the guitar, travelling, complaining about the weather, contemplating doing yoga, shopping for shoes I can’t/shouldn’t afford and drinking expensive cocktails. I also like the gym, but I have a hard time fitting it into my schedule regularly. I am hoping this will change in 2008, but aren't we all?! Starbucks is my not-so-secret addiction.
These days my journal is mostly people I know in.real.life., but I’m not opposed to making new friends. Just leave a comment somewhere so I don’t miss you! :o)
My net presence includes: Friendster, Myspace and Flickr. I am elsewhere - I dare you to find me.
For more info, please inquire within.


gizzard and me. We were married on 02/02/08! I <3 him.

 Our baby, Pilly
