About Me

11/2/07 New update: I have to apologize to all my fellow swapbotters for the major flakage that occurred for me during the whole month of October. I am very very very sorry. Things just got to be too much for me in general (lost jobs, minor surgery, relatives with cancer), and I let swapbot drop, but I am going to make it up to folks and catch up on packages and ratings by this Monday, and then just "log off" for a while until things improve for me. I am really sorry I haven't been a better swap partner & maybe in the future I can make it up to folks.

I am on the verge of turning 29, and I'm still in college. (thanks to my own early independence) I work with special needs children, and one day I'll be an epidemiologist. I own 3 cats and one rabbit; my partner is not looking forward to it, but I want a dog. I rescue things. I have too many things. I want to share them and get different things. I love things.

Things I love: lit, poetry, theory, science, robots, pretty rocks, paint, yarn, random odds & ends, plus size clothes, size 9w shoes, journals, foreign candy, new experiences, weirdness, delight of any kind, photos, rollerskates, queer anything, autism information, expanding my musical brain, zaftig principles & more

Favorite Books

Favorite colors & patterns

Favorite Tastes & Smells

Tofu with nutty sauces, coffee, tea, mint, baking smells (pie, cake, cookies, vanilla, pumpkin, spice, etc) and fruit-you'd-put-in-a-pie-smells (peaches, cherries, blackberries, blueberries, etc.) not a huge citrus fan. but citronella candles are always appreciated. because dude i live in the muggy south and mosquitoes think I am tasty.

Comment: Thank you for the diy fashion link!!! Sorry for the late rating, I got myself overwhelmed by joining too many swaps (and then starting my own!! OH NO!!) at one time this summer and ended up just not being able to deal with it....so now I've finally logged back in to try to get caught up with everything and leave feedback for everyone!!!

Oh, puh-lease, uncool? I guess I just figured... you know, cause you said 'partner' and that you liked 'queer anything' haha. But no, you are definitely still cool ;) So write back!
