Hmmm... short and sweet:
I grew up as a Navy brat living in California, Washington state, Hawaii, Okinawa Japan, Florida, and Kansas. (yeah, which one of these doesn't belong?) Since getting married seventeen years ago, I have lived in New York, Alexandria VA, Kansas again (the cost of living is cheaper), and most recently Kwajalein of the Marshall Islands.
We just moved from there to Orlando over three years ago, and I finally landed a job as a Material Specialist for LiveTV. ^_^
My Prides & Joys ---->
The Ichigo and Hollow Ichigo (name: Kyouzou) dolls I have. ^_^ I enjoy the heck out of taking pictures and making up wacked out stories about them.
I now also have several other dolls that are not based on any preexisting characters. They serve to entertain me by annoying the piss out of my Ichigo doll. XD
I love chaos on a manageable scale.

Are you still reading this?
I'm obsessed with Ichigo of Bleach right now (STILL! Over two years now!), and I'll always love Ranma.
So!
Just who IS this Ichigo of whom I drool, erm, speak?
Ichigo Kurosaki is the main character of the anime Bleach. He is (supposedly) 15 years old (just watch the muscles on this kid progress as the show goes on, and you'll see what I'm laughing at), and can see and speak with ghosts.
One day, a Shinigami (a sort of Grim Reaper, but not so grim) appears to save him and his family from what is called a "Hollow". At first glance, it's just a monster with a hole in it's chest - hence the term Hollow. Kinda. Anywhoo...
The Shinigami gets beaten, and as just a human, Ichigo is unable to fight the Hollow. So, the Shinigami decides to give Ichigo half of her powers, so that he can continue the fight with the Hollow, and hopefully save himself and his family.
What happens is, Ichigo ends up getting ALL of her powers, kicks the Hollow's butt, and is then stuck with a Shinigami without any powers. He's got them now. Now he's stuck having to "fill in" for her and fight other Hollows, since he's got her powers.
That's where it all starts.
It gets complicated as the story goes along, as all good stories do. Not much real time passes, but Ichigo fills out and dang, there is no way in heck that he's got a 15 year old boy's body. Honestly. <.<
He's a bit of a hothead sometimes. He frowns all the time. He carries the burden of believing he caused his mother's death when he was nine years old. Which is why he frowns all the time.
He can be sarcastic, and tends to yell a bit, but the circumstances he's thrown into could be seen as cause for that. He's pure hearted though. The typical rough exterior trying to hide the innocent inside.
He's cocky, and never gives up. He's loyal and hard working. When no one else can do it, he'll do it because it needs to be done. He's very "damn the consequences, if I have to do it, I'll do it, now let's get on with it".
And I adore him. ~_^
If you hadn't noticed by now. XD
Sorry for gushing so much, but this is about as concise as I can be when it comes to him. Most of my gallery is devoted to him. Heck, I've even gone to the Dark Side and gotten into Asian Ball Jointed Dolls, because I discovered that I could thus make a three dimensional Ichigo to play with! *____*
Better than my life sized cardboard cutout I have of him! ~_^
Of course, I've succumbed, and I now have a Renji doll as well. heh I'm hopeless.
But, I'm having a blast. There's really nothing in life (other than my husband) that gives me such joy, than collecting Ichigo stuff. It's crazy, I know, but there ya go. I tell myself (and my husband) that there are worse things to be addicted to. ~_^
I hope I didn't completely bore you to death here. I do have a tendency to drone on when it comes to Ichigo.
But hey, now you know more than you ever wanted to know about Ichigo Kurosaki!
And if you're interested, I gush more about him in my hanken section. You know I'm bonkers when I spend that kind of money on a sheet of paper. <.<
*sigh*
But again, it's pure happiness. ^_^ Geeky. But true.
heh heh
