I need a break. Who has a Kit Kat bar?

About Me

A little more detail you ask? Request and I shall deliver! I didn't live in the states until I was almost eleven. I've been tons of places but sometimes feel like I haven't been anywhere. I should have been blind at ten and dead at thirteen but modern medicine derailed that partly thanks to three spinal taps (they really hurt) and many many needles. I like listening to songs over and over (which is what I'm doing as I write this). I tend to read more than one book at one time. I'm a crossword junkie. Not terribly narrative description I know, but this gives a glimpse into the path I've traveled thus far. Currently I live in Denver working at the Gap for money and going to school at the Univ of Denver to grt a Masters in Social Work (MSW)I don't have much of a life because there's so much freaking homework to do but I enjoy it for the most part.This profile was edited with The CricketSoda Myspace Editor

There's an adorable border collie looking dog that lives upstairs. When I first moved in, I was like, "Oh, he barks a little. But nothing much, and he's so cute!" Now the dog barks all the time. I hop...

stupid subject line

I've determined the best way to spend my birthday will be a night at the Roller Derby. (The Shins tickets were $50+, whereas Roller Derby is $13, and probably a lot more fun.)

Think Quick!

Don't you hate it when you have to sneeze while you still have food in your mouth and you have to quickly choose what will be easiest to clean the food spray off of?

fear is stupid

It's silly how after I start to do well this stream of fear enters my life. This seeming laziness and desire not to do anything so that I might sabotage what's good and be able to throw up my hands an...
