"I had a lover's quarrel with the world."

I do not like to compartmentalize people. My ambition has always exceeded my talent in relatively all areas of life. I feed off of positive energy, and enjoy intensity. Mental stimulation is the foundation for both physical and emotional connections. Usually. Reading is my favorite. I have a great fondness for beer, both brewing and consuming. I promise I am not snobby about it though. I just really love bar-hopping and beer culture.

I will always use the Oxford comma.

My favorite tree is the Norwegian (Mountain) Spruce tree because it not only is used to make spruce beer, but it is the most disease resistant tree out there. Also, year after year the Norwegian Spruce is the Christmas tree of choice at Rockefeller Center in NY. It's a really neat tree.

INFJ. Queer. I'm nerdy and stuff. Wicked tender.

I am a graduate student in a Medieval Studies program. For now. Basically I like reading, writing, and traveling around. I'm doing the grad school thing because I like a challenge and Medieval shit is great. I'm figuring the rest out as I go.

Trying new things, and cheering people on.

Chatting with people when they are down.

I have been told that I am one of the greatest people to hang out with when you are having a shit day. This is probably true. I am incredibly resourceful in general, but specifically when it comes to making other people feel better.

My Nordic eyes, I think.

The Contortionist's Handbook is a top-runner for favorite book. I think the book and food section is a bit overwhelming because of all the greatness.

Also: Individuals who are musically inclined are sexy by default, but are wicked sexy circumstantially.

I am a minimalist and I can learn to live without things. So, besides the essentials I think I am good.

Academia, Autism-Awareness, Equality, Middle Ages, Scandinavia, Vikings, Topics of conversation, Things I want to cook for you, Things I want cooked for me. The varying degrees of love, sex, and relationships. How gender and sexuality collide in myriad ways.

Probably reading and drinking.

I will try anything once.

Please message me if you are not superficial or robotic.
You are queer-friendly, body-positive, and earth-friendly.

Also, gender-queer folks leaning on the feminine. You have my vote.

I am very attracted to intelligence, compassion, and optimism. I will never find myself loving someone who believes in anger and who is shitty to themselves or other people. That being said, I fundamentally exist on crude, sarcastic, and self-deprecating humor.

I am also very seriously looking for new friends!

*My above location indicates Willimantic. I am a graduate student at UConn, so that's where I currently reside. I am actually from Massachusetts. So, I am interested in meeting people in the CT/MA/RI area
