About Me
What is Midcat?

Excellent question! Midcat is the combination of two words: Midnight & Cat (Midnight Cat), the Internet name I have been using for many years around the net!

Who is Midnight Cat?


Many of you know me as Midcat, or Midnight Cat, and while I have been around the internet for the best part of 15 years, I never felt the need to have my own web page, or to own my own domain.


Midnight Cat was born back in 1993 in San Diego, California; in one of the -not as common as you think- internet cafes that were beginning to make their debut in that city.

I logged in once and I was hooked!! I knew this was going to revolutionize my life and the way I communicated with others!!

I remember paying by blocks of 30 minutes and spending obscene amounts of money just to be able to experience this amazing "Internet". Back then, the fastest connection was done by modem and the fastest you could connect at home was 28.8 kbps!! (Yep, it was slooooooowww), and there were only two choices available to me as browsers: Gopher and Netscape. After playing with Gopher for a bit, I decided to try the new browser that everyone was talking about: Netscape.

Netscape was AMAZING! Fast, full of colors, and even images!!


I remember sitting in front of the monitor and asking everyone around how to do this, how to do that, how to talk to others, etc. Boy was I green!!! *laughs*


I remember when I found an amazing site that at that time was one of the few, and by consequence, very popular chat pages WBS.NET.

I remember that when I first wanted to chat I needed to come up with a name. A guy sitting in the PC next to me told me to just make something up, Since I never liked my name, I decided to use something original and that described me,. so I chose:

"Midnight Cat
"

Why Midnight Cat?


Another great question!
Midnight because I have always been kind of nocturnal, I love doing everything at night, and I find myself with more energy during the night hours than during the day! I get extremely frustrated when I go shopping during the day and find that I have to deal with traffic going everywhere, there is no parking space, I have to wait in long lines to pay for everything and half of the things I need are out of stock!  This is why I rather do my shopping at night. There is always good parking spaces, never a long line, and they are usually re-stocking the shelves, so I always find what I need!!

I find myself very stressed during the day, and living in the hot desert of Arizona, is even worse to do anything while the sun is up! Average temperature during the summer is about 103F.and it is not rare to see 100 days or more with temperatures over the 100 degree point. The worst is when it reaches 117-120F!!

Sometimes the night time doesn't bring much of a break. It is not rare to see 95 degrees at 11:00PM!

Cat because I have always love cats!! I love everything about them!

Cats are very intelligent creatures, they have amazing personalities and they have so much pride!
Cats are elegant, sensual, and very stylish, and everyone who is own by a cat can tell you that they are the best companions!


Tell us more about you!

Well, what do you want to know?

Full Name:


I already told you, Midnight Cat or Midcat for short!! Oh!! You mean my "other name"? , that one is private!! However, I am thinking about changing it to something different. (No, not Midcat, don't worry!)

Favorite Color:

Black, White, Red, Fuchsia

Height:

5' 6", 5' 8" if I am wearing platforms!


Favorite Thing to wear, Favorite colors to wear and what style of clothes do you like:

Most of the time is hot here in Arizona, so I usually wear Tank Tops or Sleeveless tops. You will NEVER see me wearing short sleeves Anything!  It’s either long sleeves or no sleeves! Sun Dresses, I love to wear black because it matches with any color, and I don't have a style. I can be a normal girl one day, a serious business woman the other, and a slob the next, but mostly whatever is comfortable. (I have been known to wear stuff that looks a bit Goth, but that is very rare!, and none of the Goth make up either!) If I had the body and was much younger, I love the Japanese Lolita Goth/Punk style!! It’s crazy, but really cool!!  One of this days I am going to learn how to use a sewing machine and I am going to design my own funky/punk styles for others to wear!

Your Weakness/Addiction:

E-bay, Sweets, the Internet, & Shopping! But I am trying to stay away from the first and the last one!!


Your Fears:

I fear loosing those whom I love, but if you ask if I fear something physical, then Insects!! YUCK!

Favorite Food:


Sushi, Mexican, Italian, Hindu, and Anything that is not too spicy!


What is the item/object that you absolutely love and can never get enough of?

Books, I love psychology books, reference books, self help books, I have a huge wish list in Amazon.com that I keep adding titles to, and eventually I plan to buy! Not every book on psychology or reference, but there are quite a few that I like.

Stickers! Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!! That one I think I will die with!!  I have been in love with stickers since I was about 6 years old, and I am still so in love with them!! I can never get enough stickers!! I love them!

Elegant cat figurines! I have seen so many cat figurines out there that it is almost absurd! But many of them don't capture the elegance and grace of the cat, most of them are silly and cheap, they try to be cute and end up making a joke out of the image of the cat. Cats are elegant, sensual, refined, with a mysterious aura around them, they evoke not one, but many things at the same time, and when you look at them they hypnotize you with their magic...

Anime & Manga!! I am a Hard Core Addict to Anime and Manga!! I could never get enough of them!!

The Japanese have a wicked sense of humor!! And their imagination is amazing!! They create amazing stories and I just can never have enough of them!!

 

Internet!! I couldn’t survive without the Internet anymore!!


Hugs! I am a very touchy person, I love to hug and be hugged!! I express my emotions and feelings with hugs, so I can never get tired of them, either giving or receiving! Hugs are very important to me!! They can bring me to tears or calm me and comfort me when I am crying, so Hugs are among the most important things in my life! Physical touch is so important to me!


Kisses! I love kisses!! Giving and receiving!! From everyone!! My hunny is the same way, so we get along in this aspect so well!! We love to hug and kiss because it is the best way to express love! Kisses are a must for the people I care about!

Music! Music has been there always, in happy and sad moments, there is music for every moment and music brings back many memories to me, this is why I have so much of it! I never get tired of music!!

Smiles! I love smiles and can never see too many!

...and the list goes on...

What kind of music do you listen to?

I listen to all kinds of music, from very old music -1930's-, all the way to very modern music. I guess it depends on the mood.
