I'm Stef, and I like to live my life backwards. I may actually be the most interesting person you'll ever meet. I spend my days in an office, hiding the fact that I'm the faulty cog in the corporate wheel. Actually, I'm typing this out while I work. I find strange ways of keeping myself amused: on more than one occasion, I have been caught in my stocking feet, sitting cross-legged on the floor, do yoga back stretches while teaching myself Polish.
I spend most of my day at a computer, which leaves me with quite a few pet peeves. WhY Do PeePlEZ TypE LykE DIs? And what is with abbreviated laughter? If what I just said actually did make you laugh out loud, then why not put a little effort in your response? Why do people post pictures of themselves with captions that say something to the effect of "I am so ugly in this picture"? Everyone knows you're just digging for compliments.
I read obsessively, and buy books that sit on my shelf for months before I actually crack them open. I am a HUGE Harry Potter nerd. I actually read the 5th and 6th books in a 24 hour period once, and still can't read the 6th book without crying at the end. When I was a kid, I didn't have my own bedroom, so I would sit in the empty bathtub with the curtain pulled shut and a stack of Goosebumps books for hours at a time. I've also been known to put a book down to go to sleep, only to wake up a few hours later because I want to know what happens next.
I can talk in song quotes, have entire conversations in them.
I love tall socks, especially with skirts. Actually, I could live my entire life in a kilt and knee socks.
I've never been good at that whole "relationship" thing. I'd love to get flowers sometime, but jewellery and shiney baubbles don't impress me much. I love to cuddle, love to be held, and would rather get a gift that has some thought behind it. If a guy treats me right, I go out of my way to be good to him. I'll back for him, cook for him (I make damn good home-made perogies by the way), and make sure he gets enough quality time with his boys. I'm not going to be the Yoko who tears groups of guys apart. Actually, I usually end up as one of the guys (which is why that whole "relationship" thing doesn't seem to work for me lately).
I could live on pizza and perogies, just as long as I have beer and the occasional rye and coke.
I stole "Steal This Book" off the internet, without a hint of irony.
Insead of falling for real people, I fall for fictional characters. The ultimate threesome would be me with Harry Potter and Spencer Reid from Criminal Minds (but not Daniel Radtcliff and Matthew Gray Gubler).
That's me in a nutshell. What else do you need to know? No, seriously, is there anything else? Just ask away.
