Homotherium

my teenage hopes are alive at your front door.

About Me

homotherium (hoe-moe-theer-ee-um) is an extinct sabertoothed cat, by the way. i wear a lot of black clothes (i consider myself post-goth, but there is still that GOTH residue all over me) and work with a bunch of laboratory people. i read a lot of paleontology reports with a glass (or 4) of wine. i'm very patient and don't say much until you know how much of a geek i truly am. i value trivia, smart people, the woods, that canadian skinhead, horror, knowing looks, that final straw of boredom, women who know all, men who know me too well, cats who know the truth, the stranger who smiles at me on the train, foul language in jest, rain like hell, and flirting because its just necessary.
