(bio current as of 11 December 2008)

Hi! I'm Heather. Or Elf. *shrugs* Depends on how you know me or where you met me. Or maybe it doesn't depend on that at all? Maybe you just prefer to have a friend named Elf. I know that's how my friend Matt differentiates me from the other Heathers in his phone. Oh yeah, and he likes the bragging rights of having a friend named Elf. I guess you get something like +10 Geek Points™ for that. *grins*

I'm terrible at bios. I add, delete, redo, blah blah blah on a whim. Sometimes, if I'm feeling particularly uncreative, I'll leave a bio blank!

Hrmm. Let's see. Facts and stuff!

I:
- am a Louisiana native. I've lived here all my life, either in the Central Louisiana area or in New Orleans.
- went to Louisiana School for Math, Science and the Arts for a semester (Fall 1998).
- attended Tulane University from August 2000 to December 2006, where I earned a Masters of Architecture degree.
- am an intern architect working towards becoming a licensed architect.
- want to be a LEED Accredited Professional.

I have a wonderful significant other.
His name is Brian.
Brian and I met on March 8th, 2007.
He is awesome.
So, we are getting married.
[EDIT: We got married! On March 8th, 2009!!!]




I play World of Warcraft.
I can usually be found on the Hellscream server.
My main characters are Erynion (lvl 59 Human Warlock) and Dake (lvl 65 Human Death Knight).
I also have Naidara (lvl 24 Blood Elf Hunter), Lothirien (lvl 17 Night Elf Hunter) and Dainara (lvl 11 Night Elf Druid). I intend to play with them some more soon. Maybe. Okay, I really haven't decided anything yet.
I do have Kadiva (lvl 10 Troll Warrior) on the Gilneas server, but I haven't played over there in quite a while. *shrugs*
Maybe one day I'll post pretty pictures of them here. *nods*

We have cats. I like them most of the time. We have Renji, a gray and white tabby thing who stays mostly indoors but does like to trek outside at least once a day. Then there's Frank, the white ragdoll with tan splotched ears/feet/tail/face who spends most of the day outside, but comes in occasionally. The twins who aren't really twins, Socks (gray striped tabby with white socks and a white stripe down his nose) and Raz (muted calico, once called Half-Hiss because she seemed to be the 50% color version of her sister), are outside kitties. They whine for me to feed them and to let out their bigger friend, Renji, because they want someone to play with. Socks would be really cool and sweet if we could get him away from his sister. Raz is a bitch. Really. And then there's Mama Lucy, who may or may not have been adopted by someone else in the neighborhood. Just when we think she's gone for good, she pops back in for a visit.

A Quote I like:

Here's to the Crazy Ones

Here's to the crazy ones.
The misfits. The rebels.
The troublemakers. The round
pegs in the square holes - the
ones who see things differently.
They're not fond of rules and
they have no respect for
the status quo. You can praise
them, disagree with them,
quote them, disbelieve them,
glorify or vilify them.
About the only thing that you
can't do is ignore them.
Because they change things.

- Jack Kerouac
quoted in an Apple Computer Ad, 1997
