I never know what to write in these things. I'm fairly hilarious, completely flaky, but also loyal to a fault. I'll do nearly anything for my friends and romantic partners. I'm hanging out here to take some tests, and because Ms. Jaemy (jadefacade) made me do it.

I'm in a full-time relationship that is open/polyamorous. I've been discovering that I only have the energy for one shiny new person romantically at a time, and my current shiny new person isn't losing any glitter. I'm open to casual dating, and if something clicks awesome, if not, I like new friends!

In my free time I dance. A lot. Lindy hop, charleston, balboa, and a bit of collegiate shag thrown in. If it's swing era, I probably dance it (or want to learn how).

I've started running and actually doing some working out types of things - maybe building some muscle mass finally? Maybe, maybe not.

Oh, and it's probably worth noting - I don't text message. At all. Ever. And I don't have plans to start. Also, I ignore messages that have no substance. I'm not going to respond to "hey, what's up?". I have g-chat and real life friends for that.

I'm currently working retail management with the fancy title of "Inventory and Pricing Manager". Basically, this translates to being someone's bitch. I'm working on getting through my prerequisite classes for a local ultrasound or nursing program, and will one day have a job that actually makes a difference on a regular basis.

remembering random tidbits of information, getting what I want, snarkiness, dancing, being a dinosaur, baking cookies, giving hugs (seriously, best super power ever!)

I am blunt, and often brutally to the point. My utter lack of patience and attention span. My amazing laugh (somewhere between a donkey braying and a baby seal dying when it gets going good and loud). I used to have an amazing stegasaurus hat but somewhere along the way it got lost.

I love The Little Prince, most memoirs (Augusten Burroughs!!), all of Malcolm Gladwell's books, and Michael Pollan

My favorite movie is whatever made me laugh most recently. It changes on a semi-monthly basis. Forever favorites include 27 Dresses, Secretary, Mean Girls, and Love Actually.

Absolutely necessary to ensure my happiness are cheese, cats, partner dancing, naps (with boyfriends!), schadenfreude, and the correct use of homonyms.

Lack of any of the above results in a cranky-pants transformation.

Velociraptors, cookies, running, dancing, choreography, genetics, doing.

Hopefully dancing, not in Nashville. Otherwise hanging out with my boyfriend. Or other friends. Watching movies, studying, but really probably dancing.

I have my own brand of feminism that I've come to terms with. I'm probably a lot more conservative than you'd expect.

you're entertaining. You want to hang out and have coffee and/or hot chocolate. You're a dude who wants to learn to swing the fuck out. You're someone with some sort of dance skill I desire (tap, bellydancing, other?) and would like to trade off that for swing skills.
