I am here for Friends

About Me

By Day: A quiet unassuming Senior Chemist for an Eastside environmental firm who tends to play music too loud in her room. Yes, I am lucky enough to have my own space from which I blast whatever strikes my fancy that day. The place I work at is small and independent and they are very cool about it. It sucks having no one to talk to a lot of the day. ==============================================By Night: Usually I am sleeping, but before that I take care of my two sons (ages 17 & 13). They are older now so I try to take in an occasional show at a Seattle venue ( I try to hold myself back to a few a month--but it is difficult). I am a complete music nut. =============================================

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

============================================== Fellow music nuts. People with intelligence and heart. Someone with depth and something to say. ============================================== ==============================================
