About Me:
I hate writing summaries of myself. Here goes: I'm a dork. End of story.
Oh, okay. Here are some random tidbits about the wonders of me: - Despite the fact that I've worked in both a library and a bookstore, the books on my shelf are not arranged in any particular order. There is some semblance of sorting by genre, but most of them are arranged merely by what would fit on each shelf. However, I have a database of all my books that lists titles, authors and subjects, among other things. See above, re: dork.
- My childhood fears were of caves, the Incredible Hulk, a red fuzzy magnet on my grandmother's fridge, and the theme music to the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. I've gotten over most of these fears.
- I have an unhealthy relationship with my GameCube (who doesn't know I'm seeing an Xbox and a PS2 on the side). I still own and play my older Nintendo systems, including the original NES with a functioning Power Pad. The fun never stops at my apartment, I tell you what.
- I am trying to learn how to play the guitar, if by "trying to learn" one means that I occasionally pick it up and strum the six chords I know. In what is perhaps a stereotypical girl thing to do, I've named my guitar.
- Yes, I am tall: over six feet, in fact. No, I do not play basketball; yes, I have a hard time finding clothes that fit; no, I don't care that you have a relative who is also tall. Thank you.
- I like orotund words and etymologies, and I enjoy any opportunity to reference my worthless education in the Classics and philosophy.
- I also like cheese. I'm not saying it's the key to my heart or anything, but I like cheese.

Beth is smart. Beth is funny. She's
probably taller than you.
Some people are Hearts. Some people
are Brains. Beth is Both.
And she's a fox.

her in the all-geeks women's topless

an exception for Beth. How can you not
love Beth? There are few people with
whom I can converse about matters
ranging from smutty jokes about penises
(or penii? - Beth would know!) to early
Gnostic christianity. Even fewer who
get off-hand references to the lineage
of Pelops. If Beth didn't exist, I'd
have to create her. And I wouldn't
change a thing!

scientific) calculations, I am
precisely boob-height on Beth. Due to
this, and myriad other factors, I find
Beth an intriguing person.

could be considered an insult, but it's
truly the highest compliment I can

herself to improvment, both
intellectually and emotionally.

Forget red, all the kids are fighting

me, so I can punch you in the neck for

The only way she could be more
interesting is if she could fly, and I
hear she's working on that one.
