If you know who she is, I love you already
About me:
I just moved from Seattle to Albuquerque in January 2009. I'll be here for at least a year, but definitely not forever. I'm completely obsessed with music/books/movies. Every piece of furniture in my room is covered in the evidence of this (I buy every cd/book/dvd I like as soon as I discover them). I can be a nerd, but it's not all I am. My best friend is my other half, and we have a telepathic bond. I require large amounts of human interaction, although I do have my moments of withdrawl. You'll never hear anyone accuse me of being a private person. I'm all about the sharing. I am also the biggest language nerd you will probably ever meet. No joke. Along those lines, let it be known, I am a grammar nazi. I will correct you, unless it is just so horrible that I do not know where to begin, in which case I will overlook it and internalize my disgust until it becomes too much to bear and I keel over and die. Thought you ought to know.

If you were so inclined to text me, I'm always open to new texting buddies and I'll answer pretty much round the clock at 425-691-0194. Yes, I know, what kind of a crazy person posts their number on teh interwebz, right? I don't answer phone calls from anyone but family or best friends, and I work for my cell provider, so I know every trick in the book if someone decides to be a jackass.
Current top music: Beth Orton, The Offspring, Pink, Regina Spektor, Jason Mraz.
Who I'd like to meet: Anyone who loves music (preferably ALL types of music), nerds, geeks, bookworms...anyone reasonably intelligent really...
