I'm filling this in for Manda....

About Me

Let me paint a mental picture for you:I'm almost 30.I'm quite chubby, and clothes don't fit me correctly, therefore I always look a bit off and frumpy.I normally have very short hair, but I've been growing it out for Locks of Love...SOMEDAY SOON I will cut it off....it's almost long enough.I generally feel most at ease when hanging out by myself, with a close friend or two, or when I'm with animals...any animals. It sounds like an 8-year old girl rambling on, but I truely do love critters. Fish, birds, snakes, frogs, mice, rats, horses, goats, cats, big dogs, grasshoppers....whatever. My peeps.I enjoy games, be they board, card, or video.I paint and draw, and consider it to be a big reason why I am on this Earth....that sounds lame, but I guess we all need a purpose, right?I'm married to a dude. I love him loads, and we hope to buy a house someday.I work at a coffee house, and have steadily since I was 18. From 1998-2004 I worked at Espresso Metro in Sac....from 2004-forever I work at Peet's Coffee and Tea. I am currently an Assistant Manager, but plan on movin' up the ranks this year...I kind of want to go into the training department someday, but I think you have to drive to do that.Oh....I don't drive. I think I SHOULD start learning how to drive....since I own a 1962 Studebaker Lark.I look kind of like a cross between Jack Black and Comic Book Guy from the Simpsons.I still play with legos.Can you picture me? Awesome.

My Interests

Music:

I enjoy evrything except most modern pop music, new country, and some hardcore rap.

Movies:

Cartoons.

Television:

Cartoons.

Books:

I will read anything, and everything. My mom told me that I used to spend forever in the bathroom as a kid, cause I would read all of the shampoo bottles and magazines and take forever to poo.I like young adult sci-fi books currently....The Lord of the Rings trilogy, The Hobbit, His Dark Materials, The Chronicles of Narnia....etc.I also tend to like anything John Irving has ever written. I like his style.I also enjoy David Sedaris.

My Blog

...

I feel like i neglect myspace in exchange for the shower of attention i give livejournal. So I'm posting. I have nothing much to say. I'm listening to David Sedaris audiobooks....eating a b...

Oh, y'know....pondering the meaning of life again....

This sounds very cheesy, but I thought I'd write it just to get it off of my chest. I watched some post-mortem (sp?) show last night, which consisted of a man dying alone in his apartment, and the ...

It's funny that no matter how much you warn someone of your shortcomings, they always get mad about them later. Brandon warned me that he's an asshole. I warned Brandon that I'm a slob. oh......

Strong coffee, weak brain waves...

I feel so numb right now....it's nothing more than pure sleep deprivation. Insomnia....I think I hide it pretty well. After a nice bout of it for the past several days, I awoke this morning to...
