I am here for Friends

About Me

I got a new MacBook and everyone is tired of hearing about it. I didn't think I could get any nerdier. Turns out I could and did. I shower less frequently now. I exist on snacks. If you're worried about me, you're going to have to come to my house and drag me out. I go out for work and running. Other than that, you're going to have to do some convincing.

My Interests

Sitting around all day in my pajamas and watching law and order: criminal intent, or Project Runway, or any old trash that's on TV. Halfway reading books and then putting them down and forgetting about them. Going to the movies or netflixing Smallville. Walking my dog while listening to my iPod, surfing the internet and looking at your myspace, drinking coffee, decaf or regular. Drinking wine and beer. Antiquing. Picking up new hobbies like my latest: running.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who is as nerdy as me. Please, no one nerdier.
