A gamer, a dreamer, a lover of steampunk -- I like to think about worlds that never were, could have been, and may someday be. I love to read, talk to friends, watch Ghost Hunter and Dirty Jobs, and daydream about sneaking onto Mythbusters somehow.

You can never have too much C4.

I have some serious chemical sensitivities that make being around perfumes, colognes, and chemical-based cleaning products very sickening for me. (I love all-natural and nearly-all-natural things, such as Full Circle, Seventh Generation, Burt's Bees and the like.) I have a condition known as fibromyalgia, which limits how much I can do at any given time, and impacts my health in other ways as well.

I'm looking for friends, as I've finally found someone -- through okCupid, even! There aren't many people in the area who are a lot like me, so I'm hoping to find those who are. Friends are awesome.

Just as a note? I definitely tend to prefer being around people who aren't straight. (And personally, I find bisexual guys and gals very hot.)

Also? I cannot stand people who cannot use proper grammar and spelling and use chatspeak instead. If for some reason you think 'u' is an acceptable way to spell 'you' or if you think there, their and they're are all interchangeable, for example, don't even bother messaging me. Sorry to sound bitchy, but I hate it.

I'm currently clerical staff at the Missouri Department of Corrections. Yep, I'm in the mailroom -- I'm one of those people who has to read the letters before they can go in or out. (People, learn grammar and proper punctuation, PLEASE!)

I love writing, singing, role-playing, and being generally silly. As for being good at them, well, I do like to think I am.

People generally notice my hair first. Discovering mental in(s)anity comes with time.

Books: Black Sun Rising, the Belgariad, the Mallorean, Stranger in a Strange Land, Bleach, GetBackers, FullMetal Alchemist... When it comes to anime and manga, I almost always prefer the manga.
Shows: Dexter, House M.D., Mythbusters, Ghost Hunters, anything on the Discovery Network, Supernatural, Dr. Who, Torchwood, Dirty Jobs, NCIS, the Amazing Race, Bleach, GetBackers, Gundam SEED, Gundam Wing, Neon Genesis Evangelion, and many others.
Music: I love just about everything, as long as it won't grate on my ears, like senseless screaming or music without a melody. Music is more or less my life, and with my synaesthesia, I see music.
Food: I love Chinese, Japanese, and good old American food. I can totally sympathize with vegetarians, but I need my meat far too much.
Movies: Short Circuit, Repo! the Genetic Opera, the Saw series, the Bleach movies, the Shrek series...

1: My four best friends. Though they're flung all over the eastern half of the continent, I talk to them every day.
2: My family. After being away from them for five years, I came to realize how much I treasure them.
3: The internet. My primary means of communication with the afore-mentioned best friends, plus I have a constant need for MORE INPUT. (...Johnny-Five reference was mandatory. Ahem.)
4: My iPod. I am a music fanatic and I love a wide range of styles.
5: My iPhone. Quick and easy internet access plus cell.
6: My cats and dogs. I have two boxer puppies that are almost three years old, two four-year-old cats, and the baby -- a kitten named Echo, the only other girl in the house.

I love to think about steampunk, anime, manga, role-playing, the worlds I invent and want to write about... ...And, nowadays, a lot about the prison system. Considering I work in one.

Generally? At home. I'm a homebody. But now that I have sane work hours, I would love to fix that.

Message me if you like the same things I do! I'm rabid about gay rights, it's a trigger subject for me, so if homosexuality is a problem for you, stay away.
