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.

 

We’ve documented, as have others, that the level of functional impairment in people who suffer from CFS is comparable to Multiple Sclerosis, AIDS, end-stage Renal Failure, Chronic Pulmonary Disease.

Dr. William Reeves, former CDC Chief of Viral Diseases Branch (2006 Press Conference)

Fun fact.

Sooo in case you’re wondering why I act like a space cadet sometimes… Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, which is just ONE symptom of lupus I experience, causes functional impairment on level with, well… dying.
