About Me

I live and work in NJ. I spend a lot of time with my nephews and/or my BFF. Additionally, I like to do alone-time stuff like sudoku, crafts, reading, watching movies, trying out new recipes... In other words, I'm a gigantic bore. Go on and think it, I don't care...

Deep Thoughts
by Jack Handy
Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words - "mank" and "ind". What do these words mean? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.

You Are 77% New Jersey!

You are definitely Jersey. Well done, my friend. You are most likely from this great state, and you fit right in. Odds are, you love being Jersey!

How New Jersey Are You?

My Interests

My interests include stand-up comedy, spending time with my nephews and being the Best Aunt Ever, getting the most out of my Netflix subscription (or - more frequently - letting 3 netflixes sit atop the dvd player collecting dust for 8 or 9 or 10 weeks at a clip :P), grammar nazism, collecting kickass quotes, the Sedaris siblings, opinionated people, writing book reviews for a local magazine, making To Do lists just to get the sweet, sweet satisfaction of crossing shit off, sampling teas and wines from foreign lands, tattoos, photography, checking out ridiculously awesome houses on realtor.com that I could never dream of affording, reading celebrity gossip rags and many, many other IQ-lowering activities. Which Lesbian Stereotype Are You?You're a Granola Dyke!
You're pretty into politics and you've got the vegan (or at least vegetarian) thing going on. You're often perceived as nerdy, but you don't care: you know all these meat heads will be working for you someday. You're probably an independent culture loving feminist and this shows through what you read, watch, wear, buy, eat, and listen to. You're the new grrrl for the 21st century, baby!

Television:

There never has been - and probably never will be - a better show than Six Feet Under. Project Runway is the unadulterated shiznit. Period.
