Stacy

Inside I'm hollowed out, outside's a paper shroud, and all the rest's illusion.

About Me

Book nerd. Intellectual snob. A bit of a geek in the sci-fi way, a category in which I also include fantasy and gothic/horror entertainment.

Incredibly low self-esteem. Protective of the people I care about. If you don't want to know my opinion, don't ask it. I'm told I have a severe lack of tact when it comes to such things.

If you want to know anything else, check the sidebar. I will not "hit you up." What is wrong with people?

My Interests

literature, art, history, writing, drawing, reading, mythology, religion, fairy tales, science fiction, fantasy, gothic horror, philosophy, politics

I'd like to meet:

Nerds, dorks, and geeks. People who are intelligent, humorous, contemplative about the nature of the universe, and maybe a little insecure about their place in it. And being a fluent speaker of your native tongue helps.

I met Rufus Wainwright!

If you don't have anything intelligent and/or intellectual to say to me, don't expect our conversation to last long.

If you do choose to send me a message propositioning me in a really bad way, be prepared for a blog entry with a copy of the message and your profile address so my friends can ridicule you. It's fun.
