The Cosmo Interview!
I'm a sucker for a guy with: manners, a considerate nature and a listening ear
I've been in love: twice
&..39;With who:' they know who they are.
The best way to get over a breakup is to: hang out with your best friends, and remember that THEY will be there for you no matter what. you remember what is most important in the first place. and you realize that you are SO better off. that's been my experience, anyway.
You know you're in love when: you think more of their happiness than you do of your own
I wish I could stop: biting my nails. still.
Sex on the first date?! NO. NO. NO.
I have a secret crush on: hahahaha
I always go for: intelligence and a good conversation
The three most important things in my purse: wallet, cell, keys
I've had the best time when: I was hanging out with my girls; when I was at the Predators game with Brandon.
What's a red flag for you with guys: selfishness, duplicity, unnatural impulses, general immaturity and an obvious inability to face reality. I've seen all of them; it isn't pretty.
Have you ever liked two guys at the same time: everyone has. stupid question.
Who was the last guy you turned down flat: this guy at work who spilled a drink on me in order to get me to talk to him. how LAME.
Have you ever been rejected: nope
At what age do you think you'll get married: hopefully by the time I'm 25
What kind of craziness do you still have to get out of: All the drama that comes with trying to trust someone fully, figuring out which things are negotiable in a relationship and which things are dealbreakers/
Whats the one thing your friends complain about to your face: lateness. :)
Are you over him: like you wouldn't believe.
If he was with another girl, would you be jealous: nope. because if we aren't together, what he does is of no interest to me whatsoever. he kind of ceases to exist for me. and I like it that way.

My Interests

Learning useful stuff. Being with my friends. They're the ones that will always be there, no matter what. Trying to figure people out - again with the knowing why. Reading. Rowing, swimming, hiking, running around, anything that makes me break a sweat. Cooking when I have the time and patience. Loving someone who has the generosity of spirit, courage, skill, and tenacity to love me back unconditionally. Taking naps. Figuring out what I want to be when I grow up. :)

I'd like to meet:

just about anyone. People who know who they are and what they want. "life is too short - someday you will find the person that doesn't need a second chance." - Lyndy? if you have an absurd sense of humor, we can be friends.

Music:

always. as much as possible.

Movies:

...Coen Brothers, Wes Anderson, Christopher Guest... and I am counting down the days until the new Indiana Jones comes out. MAY 2008!!!!

Television:

Mythbusters, Dirty Jobs, Cold Case, Inside the Actors Studio, the History Channel (shutup!), Curb Your Enthusiasm, Arrested Development, Family Guy Basically anything that's not MTV. House. Reruns of Absolutely Fabulous. It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia.

Books:

Tom Robbins, Kurt Vonnegut, Jack Kerouac, Hunter S. Thompson, Augusten Burroughs, David Sedaris. I read WAY too much; that is why Wendy and I share. otherwise we'd go broke buying books.

Heroes:

Babs and Dido (my grandparents) - if I can have a life even half that good, and love someone even half so well, I will be lucky the rest of my life. Lydia. Wendy.

My Blog

Rhymenosaurus, Hiphopopotamus and a better mood.
