I am a woman of contradictions.

I ride bicycles, motorcycles and horses.
I am incredibly organized, just too lazy to keep things that way.
I am happily married but still sleep well with others.
My bedside table holds yarn, toys, candles and a fantasy book I have read 5 times already.
I love gaming and I hate AD&D. (Actually anything that is D20 based)
I love the city but could never live there.
I love the country but could never live there.
I hate the suburbs and I live there.
I am more comfortable barefoot but I hate my feet.
Halloween beats Christmas hands down.
There is nothing better than presents.
I love surprises but I can't stand not knowing something.
I get incredibly focused, but can't do just one thing at a time.
I am a patch-quilt of completely random things, deliberately stitched together to create a masterpiece.
I am also modest.

I really should update this but I love the above so it is hard to take anything out.. to be honest now.. I haven't touched my bicycle in years and we moved out of the suburbs last year to a house I love in NoPo. It is not really the City, but I can't call it the suburb either...certainly isn't Beaverton.

I spend my weekdays working for the man, in an 7-4 office job. Evenings are spent either at the barn working with my american saddlebred, playing Rolemaster or GMing Call of Cthulhu. I then spend a few hours playing RockBand, working on a puzzle or reading. Some nights that varies, but not by much.
Yep boring :)

horseback-riding,
staying up until 4 am to finish a book I've already read,
getting things done,
creating Rolemaster characters,
creating lists,
playing Catan, Ticket to Ride or other board games
falling asleep anywhere....

I'm really bad at:
talking on the phone
keeping in touch with people I don't see all the time

I can't speak for other people, but the first thing I notice about other people are faces, lips and hair.

(A) Favorite books are fantasy - Anita Blake Series, the Kurshiel series, Jennifer Roberson, Glen Cook, etc.

(B) Not a big movie watcher really but I have to say my new favorite movie is Serenity. Other good ones include Station Agent and The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, which actually scared me because I hate Jim Carey. Kinsey was worth seeing and Lord of the Rings deserves honorable mention too.

(C) Not a big music person. I like small little bands before they become big. I spend a lot of my time listening to strange covers and mash ups.

(D) I like any food that I didn't make as long as it isn't covered in hot spices, cinnamon or garlic.

My Love, the outdoors, my animals, my computer, an even balance of people and alone time, and books

Things I want to say to people but never do. Seriously.. I'll play all of these strange conversations in my head.

There is such a thing as a typical Friday Night?

Let's see.. the last few fridays have been...

Watching films at the H.P. Lovecraft film festival
Hanging out in Salt Spring Island with the in-laws
At The Dalles Ranch for our annual Halloween Party (4 days of bliss!)
At a horse show
Playing board games with hubbie, boyfriend and his wife while handing out candy to kids
Hosting a Norwescon planning session with 6 friends and playing rockband

If you see a pattern in there let me know.

My greatest fears are needles and losing my balance. Lack of coordination = lack of balance = need for stitches.. not a good thing in my book.

You are looking for a group to game with, someone to hang with, or a riding buddy.
