Fun people who like to go out for breakfast in the afternoon and sit around for a long time after the plates are gone drinking coffee and laughing. People who like grilled cheese sandwiches, and make them for me, and know how to do foreign and make-believe accents really well. People who don't talk during movies. People who don't think sports and cars are the most important things in the world. People who enjoy sifting through second hand shops, stopping at garage sales, and those who'll consider adding a couple 'rine players to their band. People who like sushi and tell me when my hair is truthfully WAY too big. People who vibe. People with nice hands. People who like to write letters and long emails, and wanna challenge me to a game of Scrabble. People who want to buy me a Motorhome. People who know what gefilte fish is.
