Welcome to the fantastic plastic world

About Me


Things to know about me: I studied art history with a focus in Early 20th Century art and a concentration in German Expressionism and Dada. I also minored in German and although I do not speak as well as I read the language, I always enjoy corresponding in German. I now work at the Cleveland Museum of Art as a scheduling assistant for the education department. That basically means right now I work with a lot of scheduling programs and have learned that using programs that are supposed to be easy are hard for me. I can do things a lot better with more tricky software. I'm a nerdy librarian who has worked in public libraries for 4 years and then another two years in an art history library. The Cure is my all-time fav. band. Their music is so fantastic and so diverse that I can always listen to it and not get sick of it. I think Barack Obama has some great charisma. This will go down in the history books. There better not be another upset where some rich white guy wins. I am sick of them. I am possibly taller than you *5'10"*. I am quite friendly, as long as you are not an idiot and as long as you treat people with respect. I love to meet many new people, especially ones to be artsy with. I am a hardcore geek and love video games, sci fi, anime, and the like. I especially love cuddling and playing video games. The history channel is great. I really love to study different cultures as well. Ancient Civilizations are fascinating. Someday I want to be fluent in at least 3 languages. I dream of just being surrounded by walls of books while I research historical documents on art. The Surrealist Compliment Generator is how I spend mindless minutes online. I love fashion. My personal fashion? Think pinstripes, black, mesh, cyber space-pirate ballerina, corsets, lolita, bright colors, glam. I have not been able to wear skirts in a while since i ride the RTA and i am a huge target when i do have a skirt on. (all the lurpy dudes start talkin to me) Although lately I have been trading in my all black clothes for some more professional clothing choices. I still try to keep it fun though. I plan my Halloween costume a year in advance. i think it is better to wake up early so as not to miss the whole day. And sometimes the simplest pleasures are the greatest of all. oh yes, and synths get me hot. haha oh you think I'm kidding!I find your eye sockets to be a wondrous amusement park filled with neo-plastic pleasures and oncogenic delights.

I'd like to meet:

creative, fun, intelligent people. people who are artistic...and live in or around Rocky River people that like to speak about random subjects as well as more substantial subjects. People who do not try too hard. sexy guys with black hair, but i already have one, and he's Irish too. people with some style and some flair. a lot of silliness and humor.
I will not add people who have no similar interests, have no picture of themselves or only put up pictures of cartoons or other people's bands, are under the age of 17 *unless they are very exceptional and wonderful people...maturity is an issue here*, and especially not people who DEMAND me to be their friends...that is an instant trip to the delete box. If there are any questions on this, or perhaps you are not sure if this includes you, write me. Anyways, I prefer it if you write me first anyways. :) Glad we cleared this up.
Your nose hair is pleasingly twisted with the roots of a bristlecone pine that is so precariously perched on the side of a cliff it may easily uproot and fall upon the Republican lobbyists below.

I'm a sucker for the DaVinci Code. i was just able to purchase a bunch of books from the CMA's library, which we have one of the largest libraries in an art museum. it was $5 for all you can carry so as an ex librarian i can carry a lot. i made out like a bandit!
