So this is what they meant....

About Me

I'm Amanda. I'm your typical overly flirty, overly bitchy, overly everything 20-something city girl. I live in lovely Wauwatosa with my G4 and my kitties. When I do actually get motivated to venture outside the comforting walls of my apartment, I shop, drink, and bowl like the dork that I am. I'm not exactly the "outdoorsy" type, but I will hit an occasional softball or play an amateur game of tennis. I'm a good girl at heart if you can get through my tough bitch exterior. I can flirt my way through a conversation with any guy, but girls are tough for me so I don't have a lot of girl friends. I'm ok with that. I'm not that fascinating, but I'm a pretty cool chick if I may say so myself! :o)
