About Me

i'm 100% 50/50 i should be working right now; creating a memo or making PDFs...a college buddy of mine once described me as someone who could "make grown women giggle like the schoolgirls they ought to be." but i think she said that because we spent a lot of time pretending to be black women. the timbre in her korean-american voice was better suited for it than mine.
i'm just a sucka living in LA's chinatown with my roommate. i like to give our cat a hard time because she meows a lot and crawls all over my bed (but i secretly enjoy it when she pounces on my lap while i'm watching teevee). i like making plans; plans for the garden, weekend trips, european vacations, and getting over my hangover from last night's bottle of two-buck chuck. i need to catch up on my crocheting, reading, musicing, netflixing, half-marathoning, and spending time with my kid nephews. i'm anxiously waiting for the hiking trails in griffith park to re-open.i try to volunteer a lot. i have lots of candy jars. i think andre ethier of the los angeles dodgers is dreamy. i take a lot of polaroids of my friends. i miss variety shows. i enjoy puzzles and word games. i walk to work at least 60% of the time.
i'm a big nerd. i've already got my drum corps schedule planned out for next summer.
also i like to maintain my Yelp! and LiveJournal blog. Recent reviews by Davey G. What's this?
