I am here for Friends

About Me

I REALLY like public libraries, peanut butter, reading or watching movies during a thunderstorm, running and traveling. I like getting to the airport three hours before my flight to buy a book at Hudson's and read it at the terminal's Starbucks. Sadly, I know the entire Sunday line-up of npr and my favorite show is 'This American Life'. I try not to miss it. I love being in a bar at closing time. I'm moving to California in a few weeks to start a new job; really to start a new life which is long overdue. My computer is fucked and doesn't recognize my ipod any longer so I've been listening to the same play list for two and half months now which is driving me absolutely crazy. I feel very fortunate to have people scattered all over the United States that I love very much. (For those of you reading this in reference to a potential roommate situation, I make the best roommate EVER.)
