About Me:
I enjoy seeking out the random, the bizarre, the unique, the interesting - both in people and activities. I find the wackiness of humanity amazing, quizzical, and endlessly entertaining. I'm amused (some say too easily) by corn mazes in the country, kayaking in iowa, wandering used book stores, or just sitting and watching the world go by.
I also enjoy time spent cooking dinner, having some wine, and watching movies at home. I want to ponder new ideas, discuss more than reality tv, and laugh about the quirks of humanity.
I'm a social worker/program associate...still learning what that means. Mostly I get to hang out in a resource library with and for teachers. I run around and tell people about our center and find ways to confuse my coworkers with my endless questions.

Who I Want to Meet:
fidel. allende. sandino. and anybody who knows about uruguay.
a lost pirate. a realistic romantic. someone with a friendly smile. an unpretentious intellectual. a dynamic couch potato. a hopeful pessimist. a goofy ball of sarcasmo. someone who can teach me how to make gourmet hot dish. a bit of column a and a smidge of column b.
so basically silly, whimsical, off-beat, slightly scary, and blatently political.

my random weirdness & makes me expose
my..uhhhm...magic i dig her lots!!
since I've did anything with my
Friendster account. But for some
reason, I wanted to e-mail you first, tell
you that I hope you're well; let you know
that I still think you're awesome and wish
we could hang out more!!!
time, I've seen her run over 3 stray dogs, 1
domestic short-hair cat, half a chinchilla, and 2
herds of cattle. Other than that, I don't think
she's vegetarian anymore, so the carnage
won't be wasted.
