Legend says Joie (with an "Oi!" in it) is a California girl who has migrated to the to the east coast, to the South, to the upper-mid-West, due to “Adulting.” A born and raised geeky rebel, hailing from San Diego CA, she is still waiting for her mutant powers to manifest...or, for her midichlorian-to-cell count to rise above threshold...or, for a bloke in a blue box to tell her to: "Run!"

She's a lover of books, sociology, punk music, comics/manga, cartoons, sci-fi, anime, and pop-culture in general! She and her Husband (The Tenor) both love behavioral sciences, and love to see how pop-culture both influences, and, imitates society and history!

My Mission

Confession of a Book Pimp chronicles my goal to be healthy for life, especially in regards to exercising. One of the ways I’m seeking inspiration is by having fun with character-inspired, workout playlists, and, Workout Cosplays!

I will also do an occasional book review, life posts, Fandom Fridays, and sharing generally geeky exploits.

Thank you for checking my blog out! I’m excited about this and hope you have fun reading!
