My husband and I have created: Mysterious Musings
We hope you will find it a unique and enjoyable place to dwell.

I am a long time gamer and enjoy most genres! I especially love Mysteries & Adventures!

I have fond memories of "Game Night(s)" when puzzles, cards, and tabletop board games reigned, and family and friends gathered round. Later, I spent countless hours... and money Bowling, Shooting Pool, smashing the puck in Air Hockey and loving the PinBall tables. I thrived in Arcades. Then there are the cherished memories of such classic games as Pong, Asteroids, Pitfall, Centipede, Miner 2049er, Star Wars (1983), Ghouls N Ghosts, The Colonel's Bequest, Borrowed Time, Defenders of the Crown, The Gabriel Knight Series, The Legacy of Kain Series, Frogger, Pacman, & of course, Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines (It remains one of my all time favorite RPG's...), on and on the list goes.

It has been busy the last few years what with inmates and villians running amuck at Arkham, forming a Fellowship of Nine and fussing over the Precious, discovering Pieces of Eden and collecting the Masyaf Keys, joining the Gray Wardens in hopes of ending a Blight, learning to Thu'um and minding my many Elders, controlling my inner Wolf amongst my friends, and undercovering sinister Enigmatis plots. My eyes have beheld the mysterious works of master scribes. Christie, Buchan, and Poe are simply sublime! Partnering with an unruly ghost named Mallone has been quite a thrill too! Never fearing to explore the dark places, I have fought mummies, giant spiders and demons of all sizes and shapes. But take heed, while seeking fortune and fame in Gauntlet(s), the most deadly foe may very weIl be your best friend! I have trekked over mountains, embarked on trade missions, ruled many a nation, and built glorious Wonders, the likes of which can only be dreamt! And I would do it all again to offer up tributes to the man known as Sid!

As if all the above was not enough, I have been playing The Lord of the Rings Online since Volume I: Shadows of Angmar, and The Elder Scrolls Online since Beta. AoC, DDO, PoE, Rift & WoW have also entertained me.

I am always happy to try new things as variety is after all the spice of life.

I enjoy collecting achievements (but I would NOT call myself an "Achievement Hunter"), badges, backgrounds, and emoticons that allow me to create lovely profile themes of varying interests. My collection is small, and I do not use any kind of add-ons in the managing of it. I will often only trade duplicate items with trusted friends.

OBSESSIONS: (Below are just a few of my favorites but this list barely scratches the surface.)

Books, books and more books!
The world and beyond are yours when you read!
These authors were the first in a long line, that gave me wings to soar!

J.R.R TOLKIEN / THE LORD OF THE RINGS
"The Road Goes Ever On" and/or "The Walking Song"
Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.

DAPHNE DU MAURIER / REBECCA
If only there could be an invention that bottled up a memory, like scent.
And it never faded, and it never got stale. And then, when one wanted it,
the bottle could be uncorked, and it would be like living the moment all
over again.

Agatha Christie, Arthur Conan Doyle, Edgar Allan Poe, Jane Austen, Robert E. Howard, Emily Bronte, Charlotte Bronte, Charles Dickens, Mark Twain, Jack London, Alexandre Dumas, Mary Shelley, Bram Stoker, Stephen King, Neil Gaiman, M.C. Beaton & so many others!

They are right up there for me with the love of books! Especially The Classics!
When I was little there was nothing like going to a single screen theatre, the lights dimming slowly, the red curtains parting, and ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh the magic of the moving image!
