who am i?

Isn't that the question that everyone asks? Who are you? Who do you think you are? What are the batteries that keep you running? Here I will ponder that immortal question, rather than some other immortal questions, such as, "I drank what?"

I am the sum of all of my decisions and lack thereof. I am the embodiment of everything I have said and held back, thought and forgotten, done and neglected. I wear many masks. Some overlap. Others are quite stand-alone. I have been called: Sister. Friend. Teacher. Student. Mentor. Boss. Employee. Lover. Equal.

Some know me as Stacy. Others know me as Pandora. Still others know me as Alpandia. You may choose from among these names, or come up with one that suits your particular tendancies. I am wholy unconcerned with the name by which you call me. I will call you friend, and we can leave it at that.

I am the oldest of four, born in the Bronx in 1974 to Dianne and Dimitrios. I grew up in the Bronx, NYC, Spring Valley, Rochester, and Florida. I am currently growing in West Palm Beach, FL. I recently purchased a home where I live with my three cats. I work for an internet hosting company whom I've had the pleasure of watching grow for the past 12.5 years. I have studied various spiritual paths and am constantly finding new and interesting ways to see those things I have learned. Over the past two and a half years, the Martial Arts have provided me new challenges and new insights, and allowed me to grow in ways I never conceived.

I love singing, though I am painfully shy at times. Rocky Horror is a great outlet for the trucker mouth that I do try to keep under wraps most of the time. I love to drive, and ride my motorcycle. I tend to quote obscure movies and songs. I love being outside when it's not a zillion degrees. I do believe that you can learn a lot just by watching Nature and how she ebbs and flows. I am naturally bossy and have, on more than one occasion, been referred to as Lucy from Charlie Brown. However, it's typically a block-head who says stuff like that.
