About Me

I prefer liars to hypocrites. I am deathly afraid of centipedes, birds, and bridges. If you mess with my family, I will mess with your face. I am extremely competitive. I come from a family that is no longer allowed to play charades.
I love: male tennis players, when green olives have things stuffed inside of them (see: blue cheese, garlic cloves, etc.), trashy reality TV, cities, oversized accessories, making up mean nicknames for people I like, alphabetization, lime flavored things, long-haired boys, speaking "Kaitlin and Becky," Santino Riceisms, Sarah Silverman, old people holding hands, Apolo Anton Ohno, crushed ice
I hate: myself when I'm drunk and the morning after, the Anaheim Ducks, insomnia, arrogance, schnauzers, Taylor Hicks, people who are judgmental, stupid Myspace chain letter bulletins, racists and homophobes, Avril Lavigne, people who are irrationally jaded (see Avril Lavigne), my sex maniac upstairs neighbors, junk mail, the current administration of this country, people who don't believe in evolution, UPS, Skip Bayliss, coffee breath
