I'm a recent college grad, a mom, a sometimes freelance graphic artist, and seeing someone. I earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Graphics and Fine Arts. Ended up on this site after taking an unflattering personality test. Came to satiate curiosity (why the guerrilla recruiting tactics for people NOT interested in dating?) and to take more quizzes.

Re-connecting with family. Finding old friends on Facebook. Seeing someone. Looking for a better job. Pondering a return to school to learn web design. Fighting a losing battle with the ants in my new apartment. Tinkering restlessly with my profile. Among other things.

Have a pleasant singing voice. Also have a brand new appreciation of three-dimensional artwork. Have recently exhibited my assemblages in a local art expo. Intend to do it again.

I'm really bad at:
Math, dancing, swimming, and most organized sports.

Green eyes (and apparently, my eyebrows). On the flip side, the last thing they notice is that I'm older than I look (or that I'm seeing someone). Great for blending in the college classroom, terrible curse when job hunting.

Last good book I read was "Only Joking" by Jimmy Carr and Lucy Greeves. My to-be-read list is getting infinitely longer, and includes "The Alchemist". Favorite authors are Ray Bradbury (the short stories) and the late Douglas Adams.

Have a few favorite movies, esp The Princess Bride, Groundhog Day, Raising Arizona, The Jerk, the Evil Dead movies, Army of Darkness, Death to Smoochy, Monty Python and the Holy Grail (but who doesn't love that one, right?), The Big Lebowski, Bladerunner, The Pink Panther movies (Peter Sellers), Cemetary Man, Oh Brother, Where Art Thou, Office Space, What About Bob, The Impostors (Stanley Tucci, Oliver Platt...) almost anything with Bruce Willis (including Hudson Hawk, excluding Last Man Standing-ugh) and almost anything by Tim Burton or Mel Brooks.

I love Warner Brothers cartoons, they are the best ever:

Tea, my laptop, planner, good books, good music, and a comfy pair of tennis shoes (substitute sandals during the summer months).

BTW-I'm talking things, here, not people. The people in my life are absolutely priceless. I am, however, for those of you who are curious, seeing someone.

Six things I could do without:
Televised poker, movies starring professional athletes, Humvees for personal use, paneling (especially the fake woodgrain variety), spiders as pets, and Microsoft Publisher.

Starting my own business, finishing an art project, moving from Fairmont, WV to a more artist-friendly community. The person I am seeing. I worry about things I really have no control over (world hunger, eco-system...). My sense of humor, and my rarely shakeable belief that God has a plan, are the only things that help put it all back in perspective sometimes.

I also worry about the increasing number of charming quirks that my laptop has developed, the balance (or lack thereof) in my checking account, the last place I think I left my cell phone charger...

Seeing someone.

I was freaked out by the Oompa Loompas when I was a kid (from Gene Wilder's Willy Wonka movie, not the Johnny Depp version) and they still give me the creeps.

You are another artist or graphic designer who wants to network. Or if you feel like it. I will message you back if I feel like it. I don't care about your orientation, your religious preferences, your sign, your age, or whatever.
And just so you know, unless its Thursday and you are binooby, I don't want to see your naked photos.
