I am here for Friends

About Me

I've moved and it's time to start a new chapter in C'ville. I have 2 big slurpy dogs who are always ready to walk me. I go dancing whenever I can and hang out with my friends. My friends mean the world to me and there's nothing I wouldn't do for my closest ones. I'm too honest for my own good- I'm a terrible poker player. But I'm a devoted Carolina fan who must learn to appreciate the Cavaliers since I'm now in Hooville.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

generally decent folk who don't hang out in libraries

Well, it's the end of an era. I'm officially unemployed as of about an hour ago. I turned in my last piece of writing, packed my last box, completed my last jobcard, and caught my last ride down the e...

Sad, sad former stars and hotties

Oy. So I'm avoiding reading the last 4 chapters for my LAST class and watching the daytime Emmy awards intro. Oh god, it's pitiful. Rick Springfield, former hottie, is singing a medly of his greatest ...

mental blockage

Ack- the end of semester is barreling towards me and I can't seem to get my ass in gear and write the LAST paper and plan the LAST presentation. It's not like I want to prolong the agony (much), but I...
