I'm Mik. Model, mother, moron. Future meta-magician. Former logic clinician.

My better half and I own Brainfood Bookstore in Longmont, Colorado. It is the only exclusively indie- and local-lit bookstore in the nation. We meet a lot of crazy folks.

Testimonial from a former roommate:
"Living with you was like living with a quiet little opinionated deer person who floated around like a ghost and said smart/nutso things and ate seaweed. "

I love Colorado. I love mountains. I love hiking. I read and write. I raise my children to the best of my ability. I have lupus and have defeated early-stage cancer twice, so I pretty much fully support the use of medical marijuana.

 

Qualia : From the Latin, meaning “what kind”, qualia is a philosophical term that refers to the subjective qualities of sensory perception and the feeling they generate. Qualia is not only the “redness” of red, but the way that redness makes us feel. It is not just the smell of a spring morning, it is the memory it recalls. Qualia are, in essence, our own unique and personal perceptions of our environment.
