I grew up around Pittsburgh, went to college around here (Penn State not Pitt, sorry), and am working on my masters degree now (Pitt not Penn State, sorry).

Moved to Shadyside a little while back. Still trying to figured out what to put on the walls. That's a lot harder than I thought it was going to be. I have managed to find a few cool things to put on the walls. I'm thinking about just taking random pictures and seeing how that works out.

I wish I carried my camera around more often.

I got an ipod not too long ago. I never really wanted one but they gave me one when I got my computer. So now it's like walking around with a soundtrack or some weird montage.

I don't know why but seeing squirrels in the city always amazes me.

Running low on Pringles reminds me that I need to go grocery shopping. I can have an fridge full of condiments and not even enough ingredients for a PB&J and be just fine. For some reason I don't think about grocery shopping until that can starts running low.

I work for UPMC and I'm working on my master's degree at Pitt.

Otherwise just living the dream...

All sorts of stuff, juggling, lying about being able to juggle, being a horrible dancer, making myself laugh (hopefully those around me too), making others smile, finding good places to eat.

My dry humor and sarcasm.

I like anything by Crichton, Palahniuk, William Christopher Baer, Chabon, and so many others.

I refuse to read anything by Clancy or any of Grafton books, there are a few other big names I don't really want to read too. Some of my favorite books are debut novels.

Movies... well I have a wide range of favorites, Gran Torino, Chasing Amy, Big Daddy.

Music, I like just about anything right now. Really like country and rock right now though.

TV... It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, The Office, 30 Rock, Community, The Daily Show.

I am yet to find a bad food. Well that's a lie, really. I like Thai and Mexican food a lot. I'm really open to trying new things. I'm not a vegetarian but I really like tofu.

You can never go wrong with Sunday brunch. Never.

-Coffee (actually that could be the first three on this list)
-My tattoos (they're kinda permanent)
-My library card
-Redbox
-My cats
-Fall weather

Where I've been and where I'm heading.

My next tattoos.

Animal cruelty. Especially now that I'm in the city.

Having fun one way or another. Going out, enjoying a drink with friends or staying in and watching a movie or playing the Wii. I'm flexible like that.

I actually read the Twilight series. And I liked it. In my defense though Amazon thought I would like it and it was before it got real big. Damn the Amazon, but either way it was a good couple of books.

you like anything you see here or want to find out more about me.
