About Me

i'm hot, hot, hot. hehe. i wish. i'm nice unless i'm grumpy in which case i'm very mean. i'm working on becoming a nurse, which means i adore it when people will let me describe in great detail the process of giving an injection or wiping an ass. i love to read books, take baths, make/eat good food. i also love to run around like a maniac and do too much. i used to be shy. i still am a little. i'm currently working (as you can tell from the blog) on being a move-maker. i study a lot. i am a good sleeper.

My Interests

books, drinking (wine and beer!), fika, the beach, frollickery, old friends, new friends, the gay channel, making chocolatey things in my kitchenaid stand mixer.

I'd like to meet:

fellow beer-drinkers, homos, book-lovers. people with interests entirely different from mine but who will eat the food i cook and tell me if it's nasty. people who are honest or at least very very funny.

Music:

recent favorites include: patty griffin, kathleen edwards, the be good tanyas, neko case, rilo kiley, carla bruni, the postal service, erin mckeown. old favorites include: lucinda williams, ani difranco, iron and wine, elvis, aimee mann, belle and sebastian, queen.

Movies:

grosse pointe blank, high fidelity, say anything. mostly martha, like water for chocolate, cinema paradiso. rad, newsies, girlfight, blue crush.

Television:

my tv is packed in my closet. i wish i could keep up with grey's anatomy though. dont you just love george?

Books:

atonement, the bone people, the passion, pride and prejudice, widow for one year, prayer for owen meany, stone butch blues, the corrections, ..., ...
