About Me

Jean Grey
I'm not really Jean Grey- she was my favorite X-men character as a kid. I'm a single 40-something Occupational Therapist. I use medication, supplements, and do yoga. I am currently a fan of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (How could I not like anything with the word dialectical in it?). I like to think about life, the universe, and everything- which some people have told me is a problem, but I don't believe it.
