The first thing I do in the morning is brush my teeth and sharpen my tongue

About Me

I am smallish, and generally nice. I constantly act like the world is ending. I love my dog like I gave birth to him. My hair is completely out of control most of the time. I walk very fast in tiny shoes. I make my most hilarious jokes to the cat. I rarely answer my phone, but always answer a text. I hate talking to people who are shorter than me. I am not kidding about standing on things.
I'm coming to terms with the fact that I am borderline obsessed with mass transit systems, specifically trains. I love looking at maps, and train cars, and stations of just about any system. I look foward to the day when I finally go crazy and move into an abandoned railroad car.
