I'm not good at writing about myself. My creative nonfiction professor told me that.
I have a weird compulsive desire to be like Martha Stewart. I love to cook and bake and make it look pretty.
I use a lot of foul language.
I tend to make wildly inappropriate remarks at exactly the wrong moment.
A day where I don't make an ass of myself in public is considered a win.
I'm pretty shy at first, but open up fairly quickly.
I'm really really politically incorrect.
I love being curvy, but maintain a healthy lifestyle.
I love crossfit.
I'm often compared to Liz Lemon. Not sure if this is meant as a compliment, but I'm taking it as one.
Sometimes I wear glasses.
Sometimes I straighten my hair.
I'm totally a jeans and t-shirt kind of girl.
I love to read, but have been having difficulty sticking with a book lately.
I like to keep things low key and laid back.
I'm a closet sci fi nerd.
I've won money playing Rock, Paper, Scissors.
I don't take myself too seriously.
I'm awesome at things like quizzo, trivial pursuit, scrabble and parallel parking.
I'm terrible with computers.
I have a tattoo on my forearm and am planning another one on my back.
I love beer and have to be very careful when I have it.
I like onomatopoeia.
I don't own a tv, but it's not because I'm pretentious like that, I can just watch everything I like online.
I'm totally openminded. You can tell me anything and I won't judge you. I might make fun of you, though. Just a little.

I'm a research analyst for a head hunting firm. It sounds boring, but I actually like it. In the more general sense, I have myself together and am figuring out where to go with it from here.

baking, proofreading, deadlifts, spelling, trivia

Usually my hair, glasses, or tattoo.

I'm gonna sound like a snob in this section, but I'm not. I swear!

Some of my favorite writers include: Milton, Austen, Bronte (all of them), Sedaris (both of them), Vonnegut, Gaiman, Shakespeare, Wordsworth, Ellis, Steinbeck, Dostoevsky, Murakami, Flaubert, Thompson, West, Wilson, Eggers, Lawrence, Elliot, Ferlinghetti...

Movies: I like a lot of older Steve Martin comedies like The Jerk and Planes, Trains, and Automobiles. Judd Apatow is pretty cool, too. I loved Rushmore. I was raised on Star Wars, Star Trek, and Dr. Who and can shame a lot of nerds with my knowledge of them. The bizarre worlds of David Lynch and Federico Fellini. I was surprised by how much I liked Frost/Nixon- it was pretty awesome, actually. I like scary movies- but not ones that are just gross and violent. I can also quote Bio-Dome word for word.

Music: My music tastes vary greatly. I can't even say I like anything but rap or country because there are some things from both that I like. Big favorites that will never go away for me are: The Flaming Lips, Elliott Smith, Bruce Springsteen, Sigur Ros, Beastie Boys, Public Enemy, The Melvins, Daft Punk, John Prine, The Kinks, The Go-Betweens, Beck...

Food: I'm pretty adventurous- I've tried both blowfish and prairie oysters. I'm a total carnivore, so steak is ok with me. My everyday sort of diet is basically just a lot of meat and veggies. As far as ethnic food goes, I like Mexican, Indian, Ethiopian, thai, indonesian, chinese, japanese, italian... anything, pretty much. Except things with gluten. I can't have it, which is sad because I love sandwiches and beer.

1. at least 8 hours of sleep

How the girls in my office would ever get by if it was illegal to whine. Trying to guess what other people are thinking about. Sex. Should I go to the art museum or watch episodes of 30 Rock online. When can I find the time to do laundry. Did I ever get around to folding the laundry I did last time.

Either hanging out with my own bad self, or out having a delicious beer with friends.

I have now edited this profile about 11 times because everything I write sounds mildly retarded at best.

You don't take life too seriously. You don't use the word "nice" as an insult. You don't mind a girl who knows way too much about Star Wars and has calluses on her hands from pullups. Or if you just want to.
