~Answer my own survey? Why
yes, I think I will...
- Name : GreenWillow, aka Tribal Elder, aka Katana
Mama, and sometimes just "Donna" (weird name, eh?)
- Age: Crone
- Gender : Female
- Location : Sierra Foothills of
California
- single? married? LTR? Or "Leave me alone I don�t wanna even think
about that"? : I think I stuck in that last category
for myself. Oh, and "LTR" stands for Long Term Relationship, y�all.
;o)
- Got kids or still busy being one? : Four kids;
23, 21, 16 and 7, and entering my own third or fourth childhood. "If you
can�t beat �em, join �em." Plus they arrest you now for beating �em.
;o)
- Going to school? Employed?: Not taking any
classes currently, though I often do still, just for fun. BA and MA in
Psych. Employed as family counselor and part time community college
instructor. And Mom. Really, I�d rather just be writing and drawing. But
you guys know that.
- Favorite Turtle? Leo, with Raph as close
second.
- Favorite TMNT Universe?: Mirage, and my own
strange little world, though as many have said, the new �toon is rapidly
catching up.
- First encounter with the TMNT? : Six a.m., 1987,
staggered into living room to tell kids to turn down the damn TV. Saw
Krang first, then Turtles. It actually was not love at first
sight�.
- How did you find the TMNT on-line community?: In
the Fall of 1997, turned left at some search engine and there they
were�fan fics! Holy Moly. Wrote to Aig, and Kim/Leo and found out there
were more people like me (sorta) on the planet. Whew!
- How long on this list?: Since 1997 I
think�.
- Other favorite fandoms? : Still have a soft
place in my head, er, heart, for Superman and X-Men comics. Love LOTR
films, read those books sooooo long ago. (Yes, I�m re-reading now)
X-Files, Smallville, but nothing I�m involved with like
TMNT.
- Other stuff you like to do? Read, write, draw,
garden, bake bread, lie half-submerged on a warm rock in the Yuba River,
horse-back ride, mess around with herbs and candles and stuff, gather
mushrooms by the light of the full moon�;o)
- Introvert or extrovert? Introvert, though over
the years I�ve poked my way a little bit out of my shell. Public
speaking will do that to you. It�s do or die�.
- Philanthrope or misanthrope? Philanthrope,
although technically that�s not a word. See, we have "misanthrope", but
no positive corollary. What�s up with that??
- Optimist or pessimist? (If you answer "realist" you get docked five
points for plagiarizing Raph!) Optimist�cuz I
believe we create our own reality and I seriously need to stack the deck
in my favor!
- Eat out or take out? Eat out, as long as he�s
paying for it.
- Read or write fanfics? Both? Both.
- Draw turtles in the margins of your notes at school? Yes. Anywhere else? At work. At
home. In my appointment book, in note pads, on nice paper and crummy
paper and sometimes on other people.
- Taken martial arts classes? Yes.
- Still in denial about that being inspired by the TMNT? <G>
Not at all.
- If you could meet anyone (like a real human- type person) connected
with the TMNT in any way, who would you most like to meet? : Peter Laird, and Dan Berger.
- If you could hang out with the TMNT for a day where would you go and
what would you do? :
- I think I�d like to see NYC from a Turtle
perspective, but maybe not for the whole day. Hang out, talk, eat, talk,
try not to stare too much. Really almost anything that didn't actually
put my life in danger-- just be so cool to spend time with
them.
