-I suppose I could call myself an artist, but I prefer pretty-picture-maker and general crafty-person.
-I'm sarcastic and generally awkward, but in a fun way? ish?
-I want a cupcake tattoo
-I knit while listening to The Misfits (it evens things out.)
-I have a sick obsession with blackberry lattes and hats
-I think alot. Sometimes I share my thoughts with those who are interested. And sometimes these thoughts are actually interesting. (Sometimes not.)

I just acquired a BA in Illustration, so I'm desperately trying to find a way to use this to pay for the loans I took out to get it. In the mean time, I'm working random jobs to make the rent, doing as much freelance work as I can, and making various thingies to sell on Etsy.
I seem to have a habit of taking life's backroads, so I'm always very excited to find out where I've ended up. (I'm ever so terrible at reading maps...)

...finding THE thing at the thrift store. (Its a point of pride that 90% of what I own is secondhand, whether it be from a vintage store or Value Village.)
...getting lost.
...making mix tapes. Too bad its completely archaic.
...BSing essays in school.
...saying the right thing at the wrong time and vice-versa.
...most anything that is completely impractical.

I've been told I look like Velma about 20 times this year, but I've also been told the exact opposite about 5 times.

Also, I have a miniature conjoined twin whom I call Alberta.

Books: I've been reading a lot of Rushdie and Neil Gaiman. Also neat- comics in general, historical non-fiction, Freakonomics, Vonnegut, Blink, Stiff, Jules Verne, Water For Elephants, The Death of Vishnu, The God Delusion, Graham Greene, James Joyce, Jonothan Safran Foer, Emily Dickinson, Roald Dahl, Ray Bradbury, Dostoyevsky, Cervantes, Orwell, Kerouac, Jane Austen, Clive Barker and more. Sometimes I think I read too much.
Movies: I've recently gotten into French New Wave (gosh, it's sexy.) Amelie, You and Me and Everyone We Know, Memento, Pan's Labyrinth, Alice, Harold and Maude, Juno, Wristcutters, American Splendor, Ghost World (I modeled myself after Enid Coleslaw in high school), most things by/involving Woody Allen, Gondry, Tim Burton, Wes Anderson and Terry Gilliam, and awful horror movies. I heart Bruce Campbell.
Music: Regina Spektor, Devotchka, Belle and Sebastian, Iron and Wine, Cat Power, Murder by Death, Tom Waits, Man Man, Blonde Redhead, Bon Iver, Mirah, Camera Obscura, The Fiery Furnaces, The Kinks, Neutral Milk Hotel, Radiohead, TV on the Radio, The Pixies, The Breeders, Modest Mouse, Velvet Underground, Joanna Newsom, Decemberists, Sufjan Stevens, Andrew Bird, The Mummies, The Misfits, classic punk, soul.
TV: Venture Bros, Ghost Hunters, Iron Chef Japan, and Antiques Roadshow
Food: I love cooking and baking. Indian buffets and sushi are my weaknesses, as are cupcakes and CHEESE! God, I love cheese.

My mind, a sketchbook-and-pencil (can that count as one?), my sight (including glasses), shoes (never flip-flops!), coffee, um...I can't think of anything else. You know, it really depends upon the details of this hypothetical situation in which I'm only allowed 6 things. Do I already have toothpaste?

...the fact that honey comes from nectar and bug spit.
...What if dying isn't like sleeping- what if sleeping is like dying? (This explains my insomnia.)
...how can I get that awesome bookshelf from this curb to my house without a car?

calling it a night early. I work at 6 the next morning, and I learned early on that being a good barista is damn near impossible when tired and hung-over. So I make myself tea and watch Antiques Roadshow with my cat.

I'm a vegetarian, but I secretly suffer from bacon-lust. (It's meat candy.)

...you find me amusing and are amusing, yourself.
...you have an amazing moustache/appreciate the art of moustachery.
...you are not completely tedious.
...you like the idea of a Hot Toddy but find that hot brandy is actually quite disgusting, and would like to discuss this dissappointment and how it acts as a metaphor for the consistent disillusionment you experience in your life.
