Perky and sarcastic, a deadly combination. Or something.

I like to write. I also hate it. I can't shut up. I love to cook. I sing along in the car to Handel's Messiah.

Someone with an opinion. Actually, with more than
just one opinion. Someone who is liberal and funny and creative
and likes to talk. A lot. And who likes to do stuff -- hike,
travel, whatever -- instead of just sitting on the couch. But who also likes to sit on the couch and watch TV. Sometimes. Also, someone who doesn't mind my apparent ability to
write only in sentence fragments.
