About Me

people scare me. i like being alone, or with my husband (which feels comfortingly like being alone most days). love spending time with close friends -- having brunch, shopping, going to movies, or out at night -- they can always make me laugh. hate going out feeling like i have to schmooze, be cute and personable. i like getting rude calls from cold-calling salespeople at work because it lets me be a bitch without feeling guilty about it. love love love to read. it's the best form of travel without having to buy an airplane ticket. i'm often alone in my head, and in such cases my husband will ask, where did you just go? no matter what i may look like on the outside, on the inside i'm always happy.

My Interests

reading novels and political satire, traveling to places i've never been before, doing the monday through thursday new york times crossword puzzle (i'm too stupid for friday, saturday and sunday) shopping at thrift stores, watching religious historical documentaries, making babies

I'd like to meet:

nobody. i don't really like people.
