My name's Mandy. To answer the typical: I don't like the beach so long walks are out, although a contradicting fact is that I love the sea. I also don't like taking long bubble baths, because the germs freak me out.

I wish I could better describe myself, but here is a poor account none the less:
I'm obsessed with owls. I'm like one of those weird little old ladies that has owl salt and pepper shackers, as well as statues all over her house. This has yielded a pretty awesome tattoo though on my leg.

I'm curious by nature, and I love exploring new found land.

I'm an 1940's fiend. Everything was dreamier then, and I'm pretty good at dressing up like my grandma. I also love art of all sorts, and am an avid thrift shopper (I can name the best stores within 3 surrounding states).

Things are only as complicated as you make them.

I just got home from driving across country on a whim. You should try it.

sleeping. I've been known to knock out days. Sleep Train should pay me.

Whenever I meet someone new, I admire, or am excited to meet I get embarrassingly giggly. I should also receive an award for embarrassing myself. (This sentence was previously misspelled and I'm twice as embarrassed that I didn't catch that as well.)

are how big my eyes are. They've been compared to those of an owl, which is just fine with me.

I was once told that my nose looked like a ski slope. I like to imagine tiny ski bunnies gliding from my forehead down my nose and then falling off into oblivion.

My god, so many...

Usually at the bowling alley trying to beat a 200 game.

I once tried introducing myself to a guy by saying that we were so much alike, that he was just me with a penis....

I didn't get a positive response.
Maybe some guys just don't enjoy a good "That's what she said joke" either.

How disappointing.

You're piegon-toed outwards. We could fit together like a puzzle.
