I am here for Friends

About Me

I'm the "Colonelette," unapologetic word nerd. I love everything about language and will talk to you about etymologies and syntax until your eyes glaze over.
I love Italian for its vowel density. I love Italian, period. I often talk to myself. In Italian.
I have two sons. I love them, and they love me. I don't wear mom jeans and don't drive a mini-van. I'm not proud of that, but I'm not ashamed of it either.
I love my husband, BMOC/scientist by day, musician/poet at heart. He's my best friend, my soul mate, and he makes me laugh every day. We travel often.
I'm not, nor have I ever been, cool. I'm unintentionally funny. I'm neurotic, and I apologize too much. I'm a native Floridian. I have an incurable shoe fetish. I'm scared of clowns.

I'd like to meet:
