About Me

5 weird habits:
  • I tend to stick my tongue out and press it against my upper lip when I concentrate.
  • I make weird noises. A lot. Like "schmoo", "neener", "furdy burdy murdy turdy". And I usually use them in place of real words. No, I don't get it either.
  • I enjoy finding and extracting ingrown hairs. I have no idea why. It makes me feel cleansed.
  • I enjoy doing #3 to my boyfriends. They recoil in horror at first, but after a while they're only slightly annoyed. I'm an ape. I like to groom. What can I say.
  • I have a slight hearing problem and I developed a coping mechanism as a child where I can fake comprehension in conversations, by nodding, saying vague comments "Yeah, I could see how that could be the case", and repeating the last word of every sentence as a question. My mom calls it "grandma syndrome". I don't do this consciously, it just happens. It's easier than having to ask "What?" all the time, plus people get angry when they have to repeat themselves five times. So if you want to play a fun game with me, try figuring out when I can actually hear you and when I'm just repeating. And please, don't take it personally if I'm not listening. I try! Honest!

    I'd like to meet:

    Wonderful, intelligent, charming women with odd senses of humor to hook up with all my lovely single male friends.

    Music:

    Something so cool and hip, not only do they not have a name, they haven't even played yet! Oh, and Ãœberband.

    Movies:

    Anything foreign and depressing. I like to cry into my popcorn. It tastes better that way. Salt is my friend.

    Television:

    What's a television?

    Books:

    Anything extremely pretentious and full of GRE words.

    Heroes:

    Mark R.V. Southern

    Just got a kitty, in case you hadn't noticed, from an animal rescue agency. Here's his story:My original owners put me outside after living indoors all my life (and I'm declawed!). The next thing I kn...

    Berlin....

    I'm leaving for Berlin on Wednesday, back in L.A. August 16th. Ahhh... The life of a jetsetter is so difficult sometimes.

    happy trails to me

    I leave Wednesday! So much packing, so little time. And my folks are in town this weekend. Need to figure out where to take them to breakfast that won't be too crowded. It seems everyone goes out...

    I'm over here if you care. But a lot is friends only. Meaning you'd have to create a livejournal account to read it.
