About

I am Cynthia Lee Schaum, a Software engineer by trade, MMORPG enthusiast, parrot and cat lover the rest of the time.  Currently playing Star Wars: The Old Republic (shelved Guild Wars for now, but still giddy with anticipation for the up-coming Guild Wars 2).  Proud mama of Bandit the Nanday Conure, Merlin the Bronze-Wing Pionus, two wonderfully extraordinary cats, Nekoka and Sassafrass, and last but not least, my son Anthony.

Tony gave me the Wazeau handle when we got our first internet dialup connection back in the olden days. I’ve loved animals and especially birds my whole life. He was taking French in school. He is a very bad speller. Hence Wazeau instead of Oiseau. Pronounced Waz-OH!
