In the beginning was the word...
...the word was love.

Bio
My name is Avens. I live in New England in a crazy large house with twelve other people, several cats, a dog, some snakes, and my three birds. I spend all my time in the Fenway area of Boston, cursing out Red Sox fans who can't park and drivers who don't watch for pedestrians. I was an Army Brat, now happily settled here in the far northeast and planning on staying for now at least. I'm a student of many things - philosophy, theology, politics, sociology, communication - officially a student of Behavioral Sciences, which is what my completely useless BA is in. :)
I'm an extrovert & a Libra. I dig writing, talking, communicating in general, as well as posing for photographers, training small parrots, teaching people about Druidism, playing devil's advocate, and third party politics.
I was raised neo-pagan by a Celtic Reconstructionist Druid (mother) and a Wiccan (dad). I call myself a Druid and have a significant store of Celtic knowledge, but also study Norse, Hellenic and Indian (not Native American) traditions. I also dabble with interest in the traditions of Jews, Catholics, Buddhists and whatever wanders into my life and looks interesting.
I served as Vice Chair of the Libertarian Party of New Hampshire from 2006-2008. I would attempt to describe myself as a small-l libertarian and tend to lean left in national politics, but I become increasingly sick of politics with every passing year. I'm pro-choice and pro-gun, primarily, everything else is a conversation I'll probably end up having with you eventually, and the position I'll take at that moment will be the one opposite yours.
Other key points: I'm wicked optimistic. I was homeschooled. I'm a dork who likes sci-fi movies, comic books, and HTML. I affectionately refer to my ex-boyfriend as "Batman" (because he is a superhero and it's because of that we had to break up), and my current boyfriend as "Pie", because I'm "Cutie" and he's "Pie" and together we make our friends want to gag.
Feel free to add me as a friend (I'd love if you'd introduce yourself), I'll probably add you back - I try to keep up with my friend's list. If I've added you it's because I happened upon you and found something I thought was interesting. My apologies if I haven't introduced myself.
