About Me:

"May's Machete" is my Occam's Razor for the 21st century. I'm a writer, feminist, geek, and book-nerd with a BA in Creative Writing and a MA in Museum Studies. I am tempted to get a PhD in Media Studies, but I'm so sick of academia that I can't do it. I work in communications for an environmental non-profit, Bridging The Gap.

What is your current exercise routine?

Sun Salutation & other yoga poses every morning. I walk to work every day (6 blocks) and walk to do errands once a week or so. Then, every other day I do a routine of exercises I've personalized to work on my "problem areas" and to generally keep myself fit. This includes sit-ups, push-ups, bicycle crunches, wall squats, weighted punching exercises and more.

What diets have you tried?

I am on a vegetarian diet and I love it! I've never had such diversity in my menu or felt so healthy.

What things do you want to do before you die?

Have babies and live a long full life with my man, find a girl to fit our poly lifestyle, work in the non-profit sector and do good!

What is your favorite book?

Watership Down
