About Me



Oh my god, guys, it's SHOMO THE RETARDED LLAMA-THING.

I'm Carolyn and I usually don't know what's going on around me. Get used to it.
I'm an emotional trainwreck sometimes...but you love me for it.
I'm pretty used to being betrayed, but I still don't like it.
I can't stand slutty ditzy girls with nothing to offer but their bodies.
I like to pretend I'm a vegetarian lesbian.
When really I cheat and eat meat a lot, and have dated more guys than girls.
I like theatre, psychology, coffee, piano, naps, summer, and my friends, among other things.
I fall in love too easily and get my hopes up too often.
I kind of hate drugs and the people who do them.
I'm addicted to Solitaire. And blogging.
I'm the queen of awkward moments. I really am. I'm socially retarded.
I like bacon. And cheese. And shiny things. And cats.

I have been in the following shows:

I'd like to meet:


J.R.R Tolkien George Gershwin Mozart Peter Jackson Alan Cumming Johnny Depp John Kander and Fred Ebb

And in general:
People who can spell. People who can challenge me. People who won't treat me like a doormat. People who can laugh at everything, like I do. People who don't take life too seriously. People who laugh at really offensive jokes. People who aren't into drugs. And generally, people who are smarter than me, because I get fed up with the stupidity in the world.
And ANYONE who can explain to me why my Top 30 isn't showing up.
But really, the only person I need is right here:

There are more. I read like a fiend. Especially because anything is better than Madame Bovary.

Heroes:

Eddie Izzard, Elphaba, and Dumbledore. And all my friends. Having that big list of who my heroes are and why was bothering me, because obviously I'm going to leave someone out. So you know what? I love you all.
