I am a vegetarian however i'm not out to recruit others as long as you respect my decision i will respect yours.I was and still am involved with animal rescue but on a smaller level since it's basically just me. I'm not into the whole PETA thing because i don't agree with a lot of their tactics..... i don't throw paint on people or try to threaten people into treating animals better, it doesn't work and only makes ALL of us who care for animals look crazy and irrational!
I am more of an introvert but once i feel comfortable i can be pretty funny ( i have been told anyway) and i'm very sarcastic.
I don't feel the need or want to be tethered to another human 24/7, i enjoy my alone time...it gives me a chance to rejuvenate, recover, heal, whatever you want to call it.
I like to go out and do things.... socialize, explore, walks, check out old cemeteries, concerts, antiques, museums, Art and travel etc. having said that, i don't feel the need to live my life like it's the end of the world. Sometimes i just like to be still and chill out at home and read, garden, bake, make jewelry or just think. So if you are a person who needs to be constantly on the go looking for the next thing to do all the time then we will probably not be very compatible.
I am down to earth and low maintenance ( That sounds awful!).
I usually can get along well with anyone but find it a drain to try to get on with hardcore republican's.
One more thing, i will always stick up for the underdog
Basically i am a typical INFP.
For some reason this site refuses to retain my height information, i keep writing it, in that spot on the right and it keeps erasing it! But i am 5'8.... taller in shoes....obviously!

Currently I do housecleaning and computer work from home.
And i love it. It allows me to make my own hours etc and i'm not stuck behind a desk all day..... well except when i am!

I'm still involved with helping animals when i can, unfortunately because of this recession there are not too many places that are able to take in the animals i can rescue, which is why spaying and/or neutering your pet is so vital!!!!
Other than that i try to make a difference everyday in little ways, helping an older person cross the street, picking up garbage, ETC.

Getting animals to trust me. I'm also great at figuring people out, i'm quite intuitive. Apparently i am the kind of person that people seem to want to tell their secrets to, which has it's ups and downs. I have been cornered in more public bathrooms listening to a complete strangers tale of woe more often than i'd care to admit.
So i am the the keeper of secrets and i'm good at it!
I'm good with making do in a pinch, more often than not if something is broke or missing a part i can rig it together so that it works again....for a little while anyway.

Actually i really don't know, hopefully it's something good and not that i can be a clutz sometimes or some oddity that i have no control over!

I spend a lot of time thinking.......Period. About anything and everything. I am a person who loves knowledge and learning so i am constantly absorbing new information and thinking of ways it can better me and the world in general!

What's typical?

I think i'm pretty much ready to throw in the proverbial "Towel" on this whole online dating thing....until then i guess i'll just take every freakin test i can find on here!

You think we may have some of the same interests,or if you have some pearl of wisdom to impart.
As far as the instant messaging is concerned....please "knock before you enter" it's just the polite thing to do.
