About Me

i'm probably the only marybeth you know, and i'm one of a kind.

i'm a cancer. lest you go on thinking otherwise, this means that i'm overly sensitive and very secretive about it. it means other stuff too, but i don't think it's anything good.

i have a weakness for being appreciated properly. flattery is suspect but enthusiasm is appreciated.
