Isabel Sofia Katerina Sena.<\/span><\/p>\n Born May 30, 1968 in Santa Fe, NM<\/p>\n \n She\u2019s tall, 5\u20199\u201d, athletic and strong. She works out at the gym and runs every day. She\u2019s not skinny nor does she have a boyish figure, but she\u2019s not overly curvy or round either. Her legs are long and athletic. They\u2019re not chunky. Her shoulders are sexy and strong. She has a nice collar bone but a short torso and a short neck. <\/span>She has nice breasts but nothing to marvel over. But most of all she\u2019s comfortable in her own skin.<\/p>\n \n She has naturally dark (caramel) blonde hair. Her eyes are grayish blue. She\u2019s told that she gets her eyes from her grandfather, who had blue eyes. Her hair has always been long. It\u2019s thick and wavy and she normally wears it straight.<\/p>\n \n She\u2019s allergic to everything, probably including her dogs, but she won\u2019t get rid of them. She\u2019s had asthma since she was about 10. When she was little she had pneumonia three or four times was hospitalized for it twice. Her asthma pretty much tapered off as she was a teen and then as a young woman it came back strong, and worse than it had been growing up. When she was about 30, she had a major attack that sent her to the hospital for 3 days. Since then, she takes preventive meds every day to try to keep it under control. There are times when she thinks she\u2019s fine and she tapers down on her meds, then she wheezes and needs her rescue inhaler. It happens a couple of times in the story. <\/span><\/p>\n \n Her diet is probably not the best. She loves junk food, dark chocolate, red wine, fats like butter and cheese. She does watch what she eats and prefers Salmon and Chicken over pork and beef. She loves pasta and New Mexican food. She chooses to eat healthy most times. Because she exercises she lets herself indulge in real Cokes, Hagan Daaz and Starbucks. She prefers red wines over whites but a Shiraz always knocks her out. She\u2019ll have a nice red zin or a pinot grigio most times. She loves green tea, Chai and probably drinks too much coffee, most of the time she takes it black, but sometimes with a bit of cream and once in awhile a bit of melted chocolate at the bottom.<\/p>\n \n She likes John Hughes movies, Foreign films, (Mexican\/Italian\/Spanish and French). She usually gets British humor. She\u2019s good at trivia games but always loses when her brother plays.<\/p>\n \n She\u2019s an attorney who works at her family firm. She practices real estate\/trusts\/estate planning\/family law. She does volunteer work at legal aid and takes a few pro-bono work on behalf of women who need legal help.<\/p>\n \n She owns a home, has two big dogs. She likes to garden, read and wishes she could find the time to try to write fabulous stories, but she\u2019s full of self-doubt.<\/p>\n \n In her family she has always felt like the odd-one out. She doesn\u2019t like being blonde. Growing up she was teased constantly, at school her classmates called huera, <\/em>which means blonde, but not in such a nice way. So, since she was about 15 she always darkened her hair, much to the dismay of her mother. When she was about 14, just before school started she bought a box of hair color, probably black, dyed her hair and upset her mother, who had to take her to her hairdresser to have it fixed. But from that moment on, she had dark hair. Now she usually dyes it red, but she will let it go back to its natural color in the story and leave it that way.<\/p>\n \n Despite feeling insecure about herself, she\u2019s fluent in Spanish. Anytime someone accuses her of not being \u201cHispanic\u201d enough, she launches out in a Spanish tirade and usually the person making the accusation doesn\u2019t understand her because he\/she doesn\u2019t speak Spanish.<\/p>\n She collects heart-shaped rocks, her favorite scents are lavender and citrus.<\/p>\n She is especially close to her family. She adores and respects her father. She loves her mother and her sister is probably her best friend. But Andrew, her twin, is probably the most important person in her life. She\u2019s not religious, which causes conflict and tension with her brother, the priest. She feels guilty for being bitchy to him about becoming a priest. She\u2019s more upset by his being a priest because she wants to protect him, more than she thinks he\u2019s making a mistake with his life. She knows he\u2019s a good man and she\u2019s let the sex-abuse scandals, church politics and her own issues color her perspective about her brother.<\/p>\n \n She believes there is a God. She even believes in a lot of what the church teaches her but she is far too liberal to accept so much of the conservative traditions and beliefs the church espouses. She doesn\u2019t talk about her feelings much with her brother very often. She doesn\u2019t apologize for her beliefs and is a self-described heathen for that. It\u2019s pretty much a joke, but sometimes, she feels like her brother thinks that\u2019s so. She won\u2019t ask him and she rarely talks to him about religion. She\u2019s gone to the Internet for her answers and that only makes her feel worse.<\/p>\n \n Habits: she calls Andrew at least twice a week, sometimes, from a bathroom if she\u2019s not at home or it\u2019s an emergency and she wants privacy. She puts him first over her parents, lovers and friends.<\/p>\n \n She picks the dry skin of her lips, pops zits, her cuticles are always red and dry.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n She likes the color pink and loves pretty things. Her bedroom is more shabby chic than modern or traditional, while the rest of her house is more rustic and antique. While she\u2019s girly and feminine, wears makeup, pretty clothes, she is also very practical and will go out of the house in ripped jeans, Birkenstock sandals with her hair in a pony tail and wearing no makeup on her face.<\/p>\n \n She plays music loudly when she\u2019s driving. She\u2019s been listening to Goo Goo Dolls, Cold Play, David Gray, BEP, Franz Ferdinand, various pop music, latin and Spanish music.<\/p>\n \n She takes long, long showers, sings along with her MP3 player, totally and horribly off key and out of tune. <\/span><\/p>\n She loves Christmas.<\/p>\n \n She dresses in tailored clothes at work from places like J-Crew, Anne Taylor, Banana Republic. She wears pencil skirts, jackets, heels with nice slacks and jeans which are usually men\u2019s, and other low-rise pants. She wears tank tops, sweater sets, tight tee-shirts. <\/span><\/p>\n \n Isabel is moody and bossy. She\u2019s a non-apologetic feminist. She\u2019s outgoing but isn\u2019t overly social. She doesn\u2019t have a lot of friends. She\u2019s stubborn. She\u2019ll try lots of things but sometimes she quits when things get too difficult.<\/p>\n \n She met her best friend at a yoga class. They both couldn\u2019t get the hang of it and couldn\u2019t de-stress, which was the whole point of taking the class, so they ended up meeting for coffee instead. She has taken a belly dancing class for fun, but though she\u2019s athletic, she\u2019s pretty clumsy. She loves going to gallery openings and charity events, as long as she doesn\u2019t have to talk shop.<\/p>\n \n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Isabel Sofia Katerina Sena.
