I'm looking to hang out with my real-life friends and long time on-line friends for the most part. I also love reconnecting with old friends I've lost touch with, so if you knew me when, I'd love to hear from you!
Aside from that I'm really not looking to meet a whole lot of new people... That doesn't mean I absolutely won't add you if I don't know you, but I'm certainly NOT one of these "Help me reach 1000!" types. If you're just trying to arbitrarily add me to boost your friends list, or because you think I might want to boost mine, you're barking up the wrong tree. If you think we have a lot in common and want to be friends, then maybe I'll feel the same way and add you.
But above all, if you are trying to hook up with me, please bugger off now. I am very happily married and find on-line trolling tasteless and trashy to boot. If you ignore this warning and try to chat me up, don't get your little feelings all hurt when I tell you where you can go and how you can get there (or more likely, ignore you completely). I've made it perfectly clear how I feel and won't be pestered by obnoxious, horny scum. :)

I watch a lot of anime, like Chobits, Noir, Inu-Yasha, and Love Hina. I love pretty much anything Adult Swim puts on; I especially dig Robot Chicken and ATHF. The Simpsons and South Park are crucial, and I believe with all my heart that Six Feet Under was the best show ever created. Old episodes of Sesame Street serve as my television equivalent of comfort food.
Most of my reading consists of fantasy and fairy tales. Apparently I have a thing for trilogies, with my favorites being Garth Nix's Abhorsen books, Phillip Pullman's Dark Materials, and Monica Furlong's Juniper trilogy. Other wonderful books and series I love are: Harry Potter, The Wizard of OZ, A Wrinkle in Time, and Lord of the Rings. I consider my dirty literary secret to be my love of the Little House on the Prarie books, Little Women and other period books like that.
I LOVE to read and write poetry, the darker and sadder the better. My favorite poets are Edna St. Vincent Millay, Sylvia Plath, and of course Edgar Allen Poe.
There are also a lot of comic books/graphic novels that I enjoy, such as Neil Gaiman's Sandman series, and the spooky comedy of Voltaire, Johnen Vasquez, and Roman Dirge.
