I take life really, very seriously.

I'm fiercely competitive. I once ran a marathon with zero days training to prove to my sister I could beat her at any sport regardless of the circumstances. I lost...bad.

The Met is my favorite place in New York. The MoMa, a close second. For the life of me I couldn't speak intelligent about art if I tried...art just makes me happy.

Wearing suits

- Lucid dreaming
- Making small children and old people trust me

I am always throwing out positive energy into the universe...I'm a certified secret practitioner

I get the Wall Street Journal delivered to my house every morning so that I can roll it up under my arm and look like a bona fide adult on the train...then I read it while eating my super responsible breakfast of Peanut Butter Cap'n Crunch!

Movies: When any Harry Potter movie starts showing on ABC family, it's lights out for me.

TV Shows: Sometimes I get the feeling that a strange, 53 year old woman is stealing my Netflix account and watching British Sitcoms and Documentaries...then I realize it's just me.

Music: Theme song from the golden girls..."Thank you for being a friend!" Also, you're welcome, that song will now be stuck in your head for the rest of the day.

Food: I often get made fun of because I almost always order a burger when I go out to eat, regardless of how nice the restaurant is or how embarrassed my friends may get. I can't escape my simple Nebraska roots.

When the singularity is going to happen, and the probability that I will live forever

how to maintain equilibrium in a perpetual game of prisoner's dilemma against an irrational opponent

At home, recovering from being so awesome at life...catching up on Downton Abbey and policing the internet for improper usage of the words your/you're...and throwing a full on hissy fit if someone has the nerve to use "ur"!

Four words: Tramp Stamp. Speedy Gonzales.

If you have super tight game
you are intellectually curious
you are multi-faceted
You value simplicity
