Hello!  My name is Melissa, more commonly known as either Measi or Mel on the web.  I’m a mid-thirties New Englander by way of college, although I was born and raised in the Rockies.  I’m married to a fellow geek named Erich, and we’re owned by six very eccentric cats, plus one kitten that we deny we own (it’s our housemate’s cat. Really).

You’ll normally find me wandering through bits and pieces of the web (and I’ve been in quite a few places over the years, depending on my interests): World of Warcraft, cross stitching forums, LiveJournal, Doctor Who and X-Files fandom communities, Pagan sites, Flickr, Facebook, and Twitter.

In past years, I used Diary-X, Diaryland, and Blogger to write. I’ve now found myself more comfortable in WordPress on my own website, and I’m trying to develop the blog I used to write in frequently. Comments are love – please drop me a line even if it’s just to let me know you’re reading.

“Geeky Witch” came about when I was in a very devout stage of my Pagan faith. I’m not as active as I used to be – the faith structure is still there, but actual practice has been on a bit of a… walkabout… the past couple years. It’s not a bad thing. I think that I’m just meant to be focusing on more corporeal/material matters these days, rather than the spiritual.

Other things, I’ll let you learn about me via my entries. It’s probably the better (and more accurate) way to meet me.
