Books, Uncomfortable silences, Marathon Scrabble, Learning something new, Art House movies than nobody has heard of, Road Trips with a friend and without an agenda, Camping , ridin' dirty ATVs, Free Concerts, discovering new Signer/ Songwriters, WVU (Let's Goooo Mountaineers), and hangin with my big, obnoxious Irish family and my friends.
I'd like to meet:
Tall, dark, and young men, just kidding...Maybe... Sometimes. Zack Braff, Gaspard Ulliel, Steve Burton, Jon Stewart, Tim Rozon, Jason Statham. I want to do bad, bad things to Johnathan Rhys Meyers (like take away his beer)
Someone who can explain anime or soccer to me. People who know the difference between ironic events and coincidences. Individuals that think in tangents. ....outgoing, witty, fun people with open minds. Kandi tried to explain soccer to me- on a Post-It. Notice her attempt at humor for Dummies.
