I'm APS.  In real life, I'm a middle-aged lawyer living in Oregon and working in San Francisco.  I am not young, thin, fashionable, married, or a mom, and my makeup skills are downright tragic, but I do have a lifestyle to blog about. It involves decorating, home improvement, DIY, gardening, crafts, cooking, fine arts (Nabokov and Netflix alike), feeling like I should have been born in another era, and occasional attempts to better myself. And yes, it involves pets--namely, my dogs Morrissey and Dodger. In other words, this is the place where crazy cat ladies unite. Welcome!
