1. First Name
Kathy short for Kathleen which I only like a few people to call. Like the patron at work who is from Ireland and says with this accent.
2. Age
Fortie-ish.
3. Location
Franklin, Massachusetts which is South East of Boston. I love living in New England and especially Massachusetts because it is a very liberal state.
4. Occupation
Library Assistant. I can't say I'm Librarian because you need your Master's Degree to be called that! I love my job and my library, which great. I would like to get Master's but have been putting it off for years because of money and also fear that I can't do it. I really like what I'm doing now and would be so happy if I got more hours and moved up.
5. Partner
Alas, no one. Never thought wanted kids but lately have been feeling like the old clock is ticking and yes I would love a child.
6. Kids
See above!
7. Siblings
I have four brothers and a sister. The are all quite a bit older than me. I was a change-of-life baby. A surprise for my parents who thought they were all done.

8. Pets
I lost my cat, Arthur, after 19 years. I would love another kitten but can't really afford it at the moment. I recently took care of my sister's golden retriever. I'm totally in love with and think maybe yeah I'd like a dog. But they are so much work and the expense...

9. List the 3-5 biggest things going on in your life.
Really boring and dull!
I guess, work, money, and family crapola.
10. Parents
My mum is in her late 80's and yes I live with her. She couldn't live on her own and no way do I want her in a nursing home.
11. Some of your closest friends are:
My mom is my best friend and the fab Jane Brady here on LJ. I have some more close friends that I made at school and work.

That's it. Very dull life.

Using only four words, tell me what you would say to me if we woke up in a jail together. Then copy and paste this into your own Facebook status and see what responses you get.

If you could change one major thing about your life, whether a relationship, your job, your living situation, your school, etc., what would it be?

Went to see "This Is It" with some people from work. I thought it was great. I was excecting to hate or be bored but loved it.

I feel like going out and doing lots and lots of drugs so I don't have feel or think about anything but I'm a good little girl so I won't.

I once posted that I had bought the book "Final Exit" which basically about how to commit suicide. This was his reply:


"Interesting book... caused quite a controversy when my co-worker & I bought a copy for the first social service agency I worked at.

If you're planning on putting it to use, though, please call me first. I'm "HelquinArtifacts" on AIM and can be reached by Yahoo e-mail under the name "iconotopia" -- will send phone number at the merest whisper of a request. No pressure, just an open ear for listening. :-*"

That was the kind of guy he was.

I keep thinking about Helquin. I kept thinking "Oh, I check on how Helquin is doing." Then I would forget.

I wonder if he was in pain? Was he in pain? Did someone nice take his cats? His plants?

I still wonder if we could do something in his memory to honor him. But I haven't a clue as to what.
