I float like a lepidoptera and sting like a hymenoptera. I am verbose but not singularly superfluous, occasionally obsequious but not entirely ingenuine, at times pithy and pedantic, but never boorish or banal. Perspicuity is not my most prominent characteristic.

Raising the smartest, sweetest little girl ever. She is absolutely the love of my life, and being her mommy is probably the most important thing I will ever get to do. Also, learning Spanish and more ASL (American Sign Language) and doing anything artistic I can squeeze into my schedule. I just finished school and am already working in my field of study, for which I am very grateful. Quitting my job and taking on lots of debt to go back to school was a big gamble, and it wasn't easy, but it paid off.

I have a knack for languages and I do lots of painting, mostly children's murals and making toys and such. I used to do a lot of stained glass mosaic stuff, but I don't really have a space anymore where I can have broken glass strewn about, so for now that's on the back burner. Learning languages is definitely one of my favorite passtimes, and I've recently decided I need to quit skipping around and stick with one until I'm fluent, so I'm investigating the idea of starting a Spanish or Japanese club in Louisville, to have people to practice with. I think if I were independently wealthy I'd do nothing but study languages and musical instruments, travel, and create art.

are undoubtedly not the things I think they notice. I get a lot of "sexy librarian" comments, so I guess that's something.

My bambina, books, coffee, rain, music, art

My precious bambina and how lucky I am to get to be her mommy. How amazing life is, how incredibly blessed I am, and how fast it all goes by.

Looking for something to do, preferably in the arts scene. Lamenting the brevity of the weekend.

I'm just like any other woman, only more so.

you're interested in intelligent discourse, you know how to properly use a semicolon, or you're generally apt to be complicit in shenanigans and the occasional bout of unabashed tomfoolery.

I should warn you that if we chat for a bit and we seem to hit it off I'm likely to suggest *gasp!* an actual, in-person meeting. I do this fairly early because I'd rather spend 10 minutes having coffee with someone I may find myself incompatible with than spend a couple of months emailing back and forth with someone only to learn, upon finally meeting, that the person I thought I was emailing does not actually exist. Besides, I like coffee, I like people, ergo meeting a new person over coffee = fun, even if it turns out there's no spark. Please do not mistake this for a disproportionate interest in you. I just like to know who I'm talking to.
