About Me

I'm semi crazy--mildly sane

My Interests

Pens and paper, Italy, the smell and taste of rain, thrift shopping, dreaming, spying, solitaire, sober santa 2, deep conditioning on the weekends, shoes, handbags, coats, song stalking, smoochies, the news, a little bit of everything, cooking spices, history, bubble baths, lip gloss, writing, the smell of books, the smell of old typewriter ribbon ink, scoring points on Ishkur,...to be continued...

I'd like to meet:
