I'm 27 years old. I'm about 5'7", have brown hair, hazel eyes, and yes, I'll say it...I'm a big girl. That's right dammit! :) I am what I am and have never had any complaints in the past. So there it is. I'm cute with a great sense of humor, warm heart, love of laughter and life, and try my best to generally have a positive outlook on things. I'm not high maintenance and I don't do drama. It's just not my thing. I'm not jealous or katty and don't have a shopping problem. Overall, I think I'm just a pretty laid back kinda girl looking for a decent man to lay back with. I enjoy good movies, music, concerts, playing games (cards, etc.), camping, fishing and cooking. I was super close to becoming a hunter. Went and took the safety course and got my license and everything. But afterward, when it came down to it and I really thought about it, I just couldn't kill animals. I'll eat 'em. That's for sure. But I thought I would feel really bad if I killed them myself. I'm very pro-hunting, just could never bite the bullet. Heh...bullet.

As of about a year and a half ago, I am an employee with the NYS DEC in Albany, NY. Yep, state worker. Say what you will about state workers...most of it is true. :) Never, ever pictured myself as a cubicle inhabitant, but it is what it is. It's a secure job with endless upward mobility. Not to mention a decent pension and health insurance when I retire. Which will probably be when I'm 80, but that's OK. I started out in restaurants, moved to swimming pools and hot tubs, and now I work with the administrative end of the Department of Environmental Conservation. And that's totally OK with me. For now. Onward and upward.

I'm pretty good at trivia. There's a wealth of useless knowledge floating around in this cranium of mine. Don't get me wrong, Mensa isn't pounding at my door or anything, but I'm a smart chick. I've been told, and I feel that, I'm good writer. I've always felt that I'm better in writing than live. Something about finding the perfect words to really illustrate the exact thoughts flowing through my head. Makes me feel good when I read something I've written and am satisfied with all aspects of it. I also think I'm pretty good at making people laugh. My friends and family laugh a lot when we visit, so that's a good indicator I think. Wait a second...maybe they're laughing AT me. ... No, definitely with me. :) Oh, but probably the one thing that I'm best at, is cooking. What can I say, I'm a fan. I like to try new things I've seen or heard of and make changes and improvements to classics. What do I make the best? I think my homemade BBQ sauce is pretty serious. Steak, burgers, also tasty. But my cooking ability is one of the only things I'm confident enough about to say that just about anything I cook is pretty damn good.

I think people notice my smile first. This is probably because whenever I meet anyone new, I have a smile on my face.

Oh my goodness, do we have enough room in this little box? OK...books...anything Dan Brown, Michael Crichton, Tolkein, mostly science fiction type books. They tend to grab my interest. Movies...Fight Club is probably my favorite movie of all time. Other list toppers include The Lord of the Rings trillogy, Kevin Smith movies, 300, Magnolia...geez, I know there's more. The pressure! Maybe I'll add more when I think of them. Music...rock. Rock rock rock. From early classic rock to metal and lots in between. Some favorite bands are The Black Keys, Led Zeppelin, Dave Matthews, Metallica, Pantera, Cake, Tom Petty. I could go on forever with this one. And food...well, I guess I'm a fan of food period. I love trying new things. I love thanksgiving dinner and my Aunt Debbie's homemade mac&cheese. Pork roast with saurkraut is pretty great. I love mashed potatoes. Potatoes in general really. Ya think that has anything to do with the fact that I'm both Irish and German? hmm...

A fan to blow on my face when I'm sleeping, water, oxygen, soap, my family, and a sense of humor.

Money. Lack of money. Unfortunately. I think a lot of us do that. Worrying if there's enough for this bill or that. Saving? What's that? Someday. Just not in a place where it's possible right now. I spend a lot of time lately thinking about being single. And how I don't want to be a 45 year old spinster. I realize that this is probably unlikely (I hope). But still, the thought is there. I don't even know if I want to ever get married. The thought of marriage kind of freaks me out a little bit, I'm not gonna lie. Companionship. Love. That means more to me than a ring and a piece of paper.

Sadly, most Friday nights I'm at my Mom and Sister's house hanging out talking about how we should go out or something. Movies, TV, visiting with the fam. Not very exciting.

I had something else here, but it was stupid. haha!
OK, I know...
It's not really private, just a weird, really corny factoid...I'm kind of a closet fan of America's Next Top Model. It's pretty ridiculous. The DVR gets involved and everything. heh Oh geez, I crack myself up...

You should message me if you're a guy who's interested in getting to know a woman who goes with the flow, enjoys the simple things in life, and doesn't do drama. I don't play games and I don't like to get played with. I'm not a wham, bam, thank you ma'am kind of girl. I'm not interested in random hook-ups or friends with benefits. That scene just isn't for me. To each his own, but it's just not me. So if you love music, movies, a cute chick cooking for you ;) , camping, fishing, and laughing, gimme a shout.
