Though I am now "officially" a Crone, I am and always will be a Warrior at heart. No, I have never been to war and hope to never do so...but I would if it meant protecting the people I love. I am not aggressive in that I want to take over the world. But I will aggressively protect others AND myself if it ever came down to it.

One of the reasons I haven't totally abandoned the GOS is being an Admin. at Street Prophets. For those who don't know me from there I thought I'd cross post so you could met the head of the household. It is rather sad that the number of people who wanted to come to a safe diary. Consider this your introduction to Princess Pixie Doodles Wilson.
