I live in Dallas, was born in Moscow, went to HS in N. California and went to college in Chicago. Wow, I move around a lot!
Among my friends I think I was the least likely person to get married (mostly because none of my friends could visualize a real-life person that could put up with me on a full-time basis), but … somehow I was able to find someone with the same kind of dry and dark sense of humor as myself and then I tricked him into a proposal… and then into a big Jewish wedding… and we just bought our first house.
The thought of our mortgage is making me understand the bewildered look my parents got whenever I ran up a credit card bill.
I’m sarcastic, I like extra dirty vodka martinis (three olives are WAY better than two), I alternatively work really hard and can be incredibly lazy, I am very loyal to my friends, my facial expression generally displays exactly what I’m thinking (but I’m working on doing a better job of hiding my ‘What you just said is possibly the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard’ face), I am pretty nerdy and book-wormy and I like to know and research things and I really like dancing but haven’t in a long time.
In my spare time I like to pretend that I live in an actual big city and not in Texas' version of one and walk to different places. This accomplishes two goals: self-delusion and it keeps me out of the gym (oh how I hate the gym!)
