I am caring, laid back, and sarcastic.

My Self-Summary

I'm probably about 90% lesbian, but there are some guys out there that I do like hanging out with. So I'm not going to rule anyone out :)

In general I'm a laid back person, but shy and not very outgoing. I'm very sarcastic and I make a lot of sexual comments and jokes. I'm comfortable with who I am and with my sexuality, and I don't like a lot of drama.

I love sitting around with some friends for hours talking about nothing in particular, just relaxing and being able to be myself. Recently I've discovered an interest in bdsm and would love to find a people in the scene to hang out with. I'm in an open relationship, and wouldn't mind having some "friend with benefits" relationships develop, but that's not my goal here.

I'm not really into clubbing, dancing, or doing things with big crowds. I love getting a bunch of friends together for movies or poker nights. I love the outdoors and wish that I had more time to go for hikes or picnics. I love to write and I read a lot when I have the chance. Music is a big part of my life, and I tend to sing along to the radio a lot :)

I love sports and being active, but my knee and shins disagree. I miss fencing (foil, Elizabethan rapier, etc.) and ultimate frisbee the most, but when I have the money for a gym membership (or a bowflex) I'm going to get back to weight training.

Feel free to ask me anything.

What I’m doing with my life

Besides doing what I have to to pay the rent and not go crazy from boredom and dealing with ignorant people...I'm trying to develop meaningful friendships and improve the things that I don't like about myself. I'm working full time and want to go to grad school at some point, but personal relationships are always more important that work.

I’m really good at

-sudoku
-playing with my cats
-reading
-writing (at least I like to think I'm good at it, magazine editors have told me otherwise...)
-singing, and becoming lost in music
-video and computer games (i'm a nerd, i know)
-thinking about and offering criticism of economic systems

There's other stuff too...

The first things people usually notice about me

I'm not very outgoing, so people usually see that I'm shy. But once I start talking you'll immediately notice that I'm sarcastic, blunt and make a lot of lewd comments. But you'll also see that I'm a very caring person, and always want to try to do the right thing.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

I like a variety of books and music. Some of my favorite authors are Robert Heinlein, Anne McCaffery, Victor Hugo, Patricia Wrede, Alexdre Dumas. (yes it varies from sci-fi to fantasy to french lit)

Also, "Darkness Visible: A Memoir of Madness" by William Styron, is a must read for everyone.

I love music; listening to it, singing along with it, and sometimes playing it. Country, folk, alt rock, classic rock, oldies, classical, jazz, rap, showtunes, and a lot of other genres make up my favorites :)

The six things I could never do without

-snuggling / cuddling
-steak
-enough sleep
-my glasses
-books
-my gf (sappy I know, but I do love her a lot)

I spend a lot of time thinking about

Ways to improve myself, why people act the way they do (though I don't usually come to any conclusions on that one), what I want to do for a career, how I can arrange a road trip through Wyoming, Colorado, Utah and New Mexico in the near future, why the metra seats are designed the way they are, and a lot of other random things.

On a typical Friday night I am

Usually I'm hanging out at home with my cats and sometimes my gf (she's much more social than me so she goes out about as often as she chills at home with me) and some friends. I don't like crowds, so I usually don't go out to bars or clubs. But I like hanging out with people without drama.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

if I don't continually make fun of them romantic comedies make me cry

You should message me if

if you want to hang out or if you want to know anything about me :) ;)
