About Me


"Expecting the world to treat you fairly because you are a good person is like expecting a bull not to attack you because you're a vegetarian." - Dennis Wholey
"There are two types of people--Those who come into a room and say, 'Well, here I am!' and those who come in and say, 'Ah, there you are.'" -- no idea
"Some mornings it just doesn't seem worth it to gnaw through the leather straps. - Emo Phillips.
"I was going to have my teeth whitened, but then I said "Fuck that, I'll just get a tan instead." - Mitch Hedberg
"Xylophone is spelled with an X. It should be a Z. Xylophone ZZZ X, I don't fucking see it. Next time you spell Xylophone, spell it with a Z. If someone tells you you're wrong, say "No, I aint." If you think that that's wrong then you need to get your head Z-Rayed. It's like X didn't have enough to do so they had to promise it more. "Okay, you won't start a lot of words, but you will have a co-starring role in Tic-Tac-Toe. And you will be equated with hugs and kisses. And you will mark the spot. And you will make writing 'Christmas' easier. And you will accidentally start 'xylophone.' Are you happy now, you fucking X?”

What is there to say about myself? Born in Maine, have always lived here, and not thinking I’m leaving anytime soon. I live in a badass apartment w/ three roommates: Minnie, Lexi, and Guinevere. Yes, they’re cats and mean the world to me. I work for Fairpoint Communications – that telephone company attempting to buy all of the Verizon landlines in ME, NH, and VT. Don’t HATE! We’re not that bad, seriously! When I get a moment away from my job – I enjoy playing Guitar Hero, DDR, Frisbee golf, reading books, bowling, watch movies, going out dancing/clubbing, playing cards, and sleeping. I can play the keys, and can fake a couple tunes on a real guitar. I’m left handed but mostly right brained -- not sure if that makes me ambidextrous. I wear only toe socks – and own more pairs than is humanly necessary. As far as musical tastes, I’m fond of anything with a catchy beat. I’m a rock/alternative chick at heart, but I listen to everything from oldies, electronica, hip hop/pop, jazz, classic rock, to even some country (yes, I'm finally admitting it. I can handle country). I’m extremely random – and it is sometimes hard to understand me as I associate the weirdest things on occasion. I’m prematurely set w/ Alzheimer’s – and I wish I was joking. I want to drive a sexier, faster car than the one I currently own. I’m also a mingler, so if you dare to want to know anything else, here’s where I’m at:

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I'd like to meet living people that don't partake in killing other people. I prefer those individuals not be involved in mass rapist societies or genocide activist cults, that they opt not to masturbate in movie theaters while watching a rated G movies as the adolescents who row-share might be traumatized.

There's holding a grudge, and then there's hitting your supervisor with a BRICK.

The Meranda is one to hold grudges, but never has she hired inanimate objects to seek her brutal revenge. She crept down into the dungeon of Fairpoint, as she was avoiding the incoming calls and custo...
