About Me

i was born in chicago, but now i live in san francisco. i love science. i'm a dork. i'm anal about spelling and grammar. i can spend two hours playing around with makeup in the bathroom but it takes me two weeks to wash a sink full of dishes. i love laughing. i hate being far from my family. shoes make me happy. my husband's arm is as long as my leg (he's a giant and i'm a midget. we have our own freakshow.) lay's classic potato chips and plain m&m's are my weaknesses. i think TiVo is the greatest thing since sliced bread. if there's anything else you want to know, feel free to ask.
