I'm Atheist. I'm looking for friends in and around Uxbridge and London. I grew up in Richmond with my parents and moved here in November 2008 to be closer to where I work.

I currently work for a leading web-hosting company. We're also regarded as one of the top companies to work for in the UK, which would explain why I enjoy it so much. I get to play with the servers all day long (fixing them when they're broken, not breaking them in order to fix them again... tempting as this may be when it's quiet...).

I plan to stay in the IT industry and preferably stay with the same company as the career development options are very well structured.

Computers. Windows, Linux, even (to a limited extent) Macs. I know more about hardware than software though, so ask me anything technical and I'll have a fairly good chance at being spot on.

Enjoying myself. I love going out, but tend to go with friends for meals, as opposed to just going out to get wasted as so many people seem to do. I much prefer a quiet night in compared to a noisy club. Snuggling up on the sofa is always nice, especially if I have a special someone with me :-)

My eyes. I have been told I have very long lashes and my eyes can apparently be quite striking.

I have very varied tastes in everything. It really depends on the content.

I will read any book that sounds appealing or has been recommended to me by a friend. I will watch any movie (that includes those that get low ratings) and have a large collection of DVDs (over 400 at last count). I will listen to any music, particularly if it's electronica, trance, techno, d'n'b or house. I listen to classical when I'm depressed and need cheering up and enjoy listening to Eminem on occasion.

Food? I eat anything and everything. I am not a fussy eater. There are some things I won't eat, though. These include: peanut butter, chocolate with nuts in (nougat doesn't count, and neither does Ferrero Rocher) and parts of animals not usually eaten in Western cuisine (such as chicken feet, for example. Not something I imagine enjoying...)

1. My phone. Somebody, somewhere always seems to need me.
2. My friends. Sometimes I forget to call them, but that is only if I'm snowed under with stuff going on at work (stuff I should probably forget about as soon as I walk out the door, but that just wouldn't be fanatical, would it?). They always seem to call me and I wouldn't have it any other way.
3. The internet. I have tried to live without it, but failed miserably. I have a direct connection to the backbone of the internet at work, but that alone was not good enough when we didn't have a home connection until nearly two months after moving... I suffered.
4. My movie and TV collections. Most of my stuff is stored on my home server, allowing me to call it up instantly. Being able to choose a film or show to watch from the comfort of the sofa is awesome :-)
5. My iPhone. I have it set to download my e-mail wherever I am. Any time of day or night I can be reached by e-mail.
6. OKCupid? I love this site!

Working. I work Wednesday to Saturday 9pm-6am. I sleep on my nights off and am constantly switching between "day mode" and "night mode" in order to see friends and family.

My name is Sarah

You've read this far and still want to say hello.

I don't bite... hard... unless asked nicely, so please feel free to get in touch.
