What do people call me?
Online, I commonly use the aliases "Mme Javert" "Lady Anne" or "KeiriaStar." My real name is Jenn. Occasionally, people call me crazy. :)

What do people see when they look at me?
I'm female, 5'4" (1.6m in metric), brown hair, blue eyes. Acne that won't go away. Frizzy hair. Thick ol' glasses, yes, even with those fancy lenses, the polyurethanes that makes thick lenses half their thickness. I have bad eyes.

What kind of family do I have?
I have two parents, who are divorced. I have two step-parents. I have three younger brothers, two younger step-brothers, and one younger half-sister. I also have the usual complement of aunts, uncles, grandparents, and cousins.

What about religion/spirituality?
Yes, I am a spiritual person. I am a polytheistic pagan. I believe that The Divine Entities began the forces that set the Universe in motion. Thus, I believe that the Universe was created, but also that evolution exists. Being an astronomer, I am fascinated about the events that started the Universe. But I truly believe that all those energies that caused the Big Bang were set in motion by The Divine Entities. I am also a strong believer in Karma.
