About Me

I like: a good list, crossword puzzles, bread pudding, Sara, Sheena, Cookie, Marlaine, and NOT Teddy Von Johnsonstein. Maps, globes, National Geographic and Planet Earth are cool. I also enjoy obsessively emptying the trash can on my desktop but not the one in my room. But I do not like the following: some children, most cats, when people don't use the correct there/their (I heart grammar), and blueberries. How could somebody hate a berry? Also, I dislike drivers who put on their blinker and then expect you to get out of their way so that they can change lanes. I have no problem with you coming into my lane, but you need to speed up or slow down accordingly. I'm not gonna hold your hand and do it for you. Oh, I am really good at minesweeper. I wish I could major in it.
"To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never, to forget." - Arundhati Roy
