I, like, cry, when I listen to it, it's so good.

About Me

I am intolerant to bad espresso and musicals. My soul is in Europe, my heart is in Virginia. I am scared to death of becoming an American but I fade away in Sweden. I love to talk to strangers about dogs. I have absolutely zero idea of where I belong. I miss my family and friends. I am a snob, but I love trashy celeb magazines. I tend to take things personally and being to sensitive, when I should just let it fly by my ears. I don't dwell on things for too long, which helps the sensitivity part. I love to make stuff. My sisters are very important to me, and I almost can't stand living this far away from them. I have a dog that I adore and a boyfriend that I adore equally. I really like beer. I am quiet with new people, but tend to get inappropriate with people I know well. I have lots of close friends in Sweden but only a couple here. I would like to move to New York at some point in my life. I just about had it with DC suburbia.

Apple ads

I find it amusing that I can't watch the Apple ads (video on the Apple website) on my mac without having it pause every 5th second, because my Mac is so slow.
