Historical era, and why: I don't have one.
If you could live anywhere in the world for one year, where would you go, and why?: Australia, because I've always wanted to go there, and since I am an excellent mimic I could learn the awesome accent.
What historical, mythological, or legendary character do you most identify with, and why? Elizabeth Cady Stanton - she was the brains behind Susan B. Anthony's actions, and my hero. She was a strong feminist and disagreed with the Bible's viewpoint of women. She was ahead of her time.
Do you have any creative talents?: I sew, carve intricate designs on pumpkins, draw, play piano, and sing.
Are you willing to accept cross-gendered votes/stamps? Sure. Some of the best Care Bears were male.
