I am here for Friends

About Me

i'm a little standoffish until you get to know me, and then you find that i'm really just a good natured bitch with a wicked sense of wit. i will grow on you like a fungus that you don't really appreciate, but just can't seem to get rid of. nor would you want to.

My Interests

all things fibery, knitty, crafty and fabric-y. i become a monster if i don't get to do my morning yoga. weird, fad diets mostly looking for the fountain of youth rather than dropping to anorexicia status.

I'd like to meet:

i'm not really here to meet people, although that seems to be the premise of such a site. i'm here for moral support. i'm here because you need me.

Music:

garbage, juliette and the licks, butterfly boucher, bif naked, the like, dido, fiona apple, ditty bops, frou frou, janis joplin, melissa ferrick, murmurs, rachael yamagata

Movies:

i tend to think of movies as being a two hour waste of my life. i generally feel that way about everything with a screen. i just can't seem to give my laptop up.

Television:

i haven't had a television in years. i think my life is better off without it. i've missed the whole reality tv trend, and the entire w. presidency. i get my news online from comic strips.

Books:

it's funny really. i spend a lot of time in bookstores as that tends to be where i hang out the most, although i can't name a single book that i like. i flip through the magazines, i check out the books in the fashion section on the designers, in the craft section on knitting, etc., and i like to actually read through cookbooks although i don't currently have kitchen facilities readily available to me. but titles? i can give you none.

Heroes:

my mom. she is my mom after all. and my sister who impresses me every single day. someday i hope to be one of my own heros. i'm working on that.
