I am here for Dating, Friends and Networking

About Me

Don't judge but i am seriously obsessed with Law and Order, SVU. I can basically solve sex crimes now which is convenient because while i refuse to believe that where i live is in any way, shape or form the Tenderloin, it is kinda' near it. And we all know the kind of sex crimes that need solving in that hood.I like lotsa other stuff: movies, music, beer, a fine meal, sitting in coffee shops and eavesdropping on other people's conversations, knitting hats while i drink beer, making fun of others, making fun of myself, just flappin' and laughing.I hate even more stuff: spoken word, the word "moist" whether we're talkin' cake or privates, long toenails, circus peanuts, people who put straws in the little sippy part of hot coffee beverages. what the fuck? straws are for cold drinks. not hot ones. douches. things that have annoyed me lately: people who don't use a signal when they're turning, the fucker who whacked my bumper and made it really ugly and left a note wth a number but won't pick up when i call, the sound of nail clippers being used....ah i could go on forever but then you might mistake me for a negative person. i'm really rather chipper.

My Interests

In no particular order, these are things i have interest in: cooking, writing, reading, knitting, drinking beer while knitting, sitting in dolores park on sunny days, being with good friends eating good stuff, playing tennis or ping pong (yep i like the raquet sports), the farmer's market on saturdays, buying jeans ( i have a small....no, a big obsession with purchasing jeans....what can i say? i'm on a quest for the perfect pair which i have yet to find). I dunno. I like lots of things. I can pretty much be coerced into anything. Wait. That's a total lie. I would never, for example, go skydiving. I have no interest in risky behavior that involves heights.

I'd like to meet:

people who aren't scared to make fun of others or of me. people who don't mind spending the day on the couch watching crappy tv- like a good 'ole lifetime movie about the girl who catches the syph from a oversexed teenage boy.

Music:

i refuse to divulge my guilty pleasures here, and it would be impossible to list all the music i like but lately i've been listening to the following: kate nash,meiko, some tight ass shit i pilfered from o's ipod, mates of state , and that's all i'm gonna tell you about. There.

Movies:

Flirting with disaster, Breakfast at Tiffany's, Tootsie, Squid and the Whale, 9 to 5.

Television:

Project Runway ,Law and Order, SVU and Criminal Intent (both rule), True Life, Top Chef = basically any ole shitty reality show which i realize is going to make me kind of unpopular but who cares

Books:

my antonia, kite runner, anything david sedaris, a fine memoir, or collection of short stories

Heroes:

so many. most of my friends are heroes for putting up with me

My Blog

A, let me apologize for not being true to my word. I believe i vowed back in July to blog more and we all know that this was a lie. The intent was there, but laziness generally gets the better of me. ...
