   Quinn's Blurbs
About me:
I've just graduated from Smith College with a degree in English and will eventually be a frustrated writer. I am from Texas and love Texas very much when I am not in it. I also love They Might Be Giants, Conan O'Brien, U2, The Kids in the Hall, and puppies and kitties. I have two zines which are also on Myspace: Ephemera and Plaid Skirts & Converse (add them!). I'm pretty lousy about answering messages/comments, but I'm trying to work on that.
Who I'd like to meet:
Writers. TMBG fans. People who write about TMBG. Intellectual snobs. Tree-hugging vegetarian hippies. Feminists. Free-thinkers. Iconoclasts. Bleeding-heart liberals. Latter-day Beats. And cute girls are always good, hehe.

oh quinn how I've missed you. The last time I saw you was at a starbucks and you were reading, dress your family in corduroy & denim, and you had told me to read it. several years later, I take your advice and I could hate myself for not doing it any sooner. so thank you for the suggestion from years ago. you may smack me in the back of my head and say i told you so now.
