My name is Sara Elizabeth Lang. I live in stinky steeltown, Ontario, Canada, where my lungs turn even blacker everyday. I subject the following individuals to this as well because I love them and they live with me: a beautifully charming man named Dale, and Chloe our pug.

I am twenty-four years old but depending on the day you speak to me I could resemble something closer to an ninety-year-old wise motherfucker or a five-year-old winy motherfucker.

I am an addictions counsellor at a local Detox and Treatment center called Womankind. I am kinda sorta but not so much anymore a Rehabilitation Facilitator at Brain Injury Services of Hamilton, working in a group home supporting six adults that have an acquired brain injury. I am also a counselor at SAVIS (The Sexual Assault & Violence Intervention Services of Halton) on an after hours crisis line for women that have experienced sexual violence.

I have worked a series of jobs in the social services and in some way have loved all of them but I feel that I still haven’t found what it is I am supposed to be doing in my life. I will continue to search for whatever ‘it’ is and continue to find joy in my days.

I love to row, canoe, kayak, hike and travel. Last year I spent a few weeks down under in New Zealand, tramping around with the kiwis, my highlight being hiking the Milford Track. I recently completed the Women of Courage canoeing expedition with Outward Bound Canada. I find solitude and clarity in traveling and hope to continue to see the world.

I had written for over a year on Womanifestations (a previous incarnation of Pissy Pollyanna) sputtering out meanderings from time to time. This website is place for me to express, reflect, rant, rave, write and create. I am excited about finding joy in photography again and will have much on display for your eyes.

Things I like: really tasty coffee, getting mail, adventure travel novels, astrology, love love love music, camping, watching the full moon rise, bubble baths, sunny afternoons, pina coladas, long walks, swings, napping, the smell of freshly cut grass, breakfast in bed, silence, strawberries, photography, butterflies, family, kayaking, everything chocolate, the smell of really old things my grandma gives me, riding my bike, peanut butter, fancy dinners, my MacBook.
