About Me

how do you sum up who you think you are or who you want people to perceive you to be in a small box? no idea. not sure how to fit who i am in a box with a word count. it seems to me, to be a bit like moving. you pack up all of your things, all of who you thought you were. and you see that the majority of your possessions and your life can fit into 5 cardboard boxes...
here, have some boxes...
----------------------------
i am altogether too honest. i don't think i could pull off lying for the life of me. there are many interesting side effects to this.
random facts delight me to the point of foolishness. so do games. video games, board games, card games. ooh la la.
i drink too much coffee for my own good.
i hate being called cute. i will snarl if you call me cute or perhaps projectile vomit. projectile vomiting is not cute.
i find it hard to stay mad at someone for very long. it takes a lot to even make me upset, and an insane amount more to make me stay mad at someone.
i have hardly any regrets. i believe it's better to regret what you have done versus what you don't do. this has served me well so far.
i have spouts of domestic-ness where i like to pretend i can cook dishes with ingredients i cannot pronounce. did you know a 'spout' is also the term for the burst of spray from a whale's blowhole?(speaking of random facts...)
i laugh too much, love too quickly, and live too fast..
and i really wouldn't have it any other way.
