Mini Bio

I am: 27, a single parent, a student, working full time, and really not all that interesting. I like music and books and writing, and everything else you put on a college application to show how ~well-rounded you are. I like Spinning and Yoga and porn. I like the internet because people annoy me less on it, which sounds rather misanthropic, and maybe it is, but I have a limited supply of patience and it's exhausted much more quickly in person.

I have: a toddler, a bunch of pet peeves, a copy of photoshop that I do criminal things with, and a WIP list so long it makes me cry sometimes when I look at it. I'm really into bandom, as far as fandom goes, but you can try me on other pop culture things. You might be surprised! (You might not, though, sometimes I just totally drop the ball). I am actually rather boring.

As far as friending policies go, mine is pretty flexible. Friend if you want to, or don't, if that's more your style. I haven't done friend-backs in a while because my friends list got so long it started to make me cry. However, I periodically go check out the journals of everyone who's friended me lately and decide whether or not I'm going to friend back. If I've friended you back, it means I've looked at your journal. If I haven't, it means I either haven't looked at your journal, or did and saw something that hit one of my aforementioned pet peeves. I don't flock any fannish content, and I only lock personal things when I don't want everyone to read them. I do read a filtered friends list, mostly because trying to read it unfiltered was preventing me from seeing the posts of the people who I communicate with most often, and that was making me sad. I may have also randomly friended you out of nowhere, something that happens pretty often if I a) like your fic, b) like something you said in comments somewhere, or sometimes c) saw something in your icon/journal/profile that made me giggle like a Japanese schoolgirl.

I have a WEBSITE, but I'm not doing anything with it. I also have a FANFICTION MASTER LIST, which is slightly more helpful, if you're into that sort of thing. I feel like I should put a disclaimer here. I'll get back to you on that one.

"The trouble is that we have a bad habit, encouraged by pedants and sophisticates, of considering happiness as something rather stupid. Only pain is intellectual, only evil interesting. This is the treason of the artist: a refusal to admit the banality of evil and the terrible boredom of pain. If you can't lick 'em, join 'em. If it hurts, repeat it. But to praise despair is to condemn delight, to embrace violence is to lose hold of everything else."
-Ursula K. LeGuin
