My name is Laura and I'm 43. I am a teacher's aide in a preschool for autistic children. My interest in Japan started when my then 17 year old son introduced me to Japanese music. (It has cost me a small fortune so far in cds, but worth every penny!) I loved it and wanted to know what they were singing. From there it was on to manga and anime and movies. Now I am attempting to learn the language on my own. Hopefully I will be able to learn enough about the customs and culture to be able to enjoy our first family trip there...someday.

Thank you all for the warm welcomes. What a friendly place...
In answer to all the interest:
Kara Nari - Thank you. I have found some online sites that are helpful, but right now I am attempting to learn from textbooks. It is slow, but I will be around for a long time any way.
Kinsao - First my son introduced me to Gackt's music. From there it was onto Malice Mizer, MdM, Kozi's solo stuff, Miyavi, L'Arc~en~Ciel, and now pretty much anyone who likes the same stuff and suggests someone else, I will give a listen to.
Frank D. White - Hello neighbor! One by one we are visiting the states. Good thing I am immortal because at the rate I'm going...well, you get the idea.
Sensuikan San - Hehe...that made me laugh. Glad to reinforce "the ranks". Now I feel special!
And to all - Whee!! Thank you from the middle of my heart for making my day!!!
