Cancer

A walking contradiction. Cliche-prone. Self-editor and -critic extraordinaire. Cheese-lover. Whiskey-drinker. Book-maker (the paper kind, not the OTB kind) and bookseller. Overly fond of hyphens. Punctual. Pottymouth. Vagabond. Lapsed Quaker. Aspiring imperfectionist. Always at least a little shy. Vaguely mysterious. Constantly curious. A sympathetic ear. A cynical optimist. A kind soul.

Amusing distractors. Fellow wallowers. Complementary complimenters. Map-makers. Adventure-bringers. Yoga/biking/brunch/drinking buddies. People who have dance parties in their living rooms. Live music show accompaniers. Expert snugglers. People with dogs and kids who I can spoil rotten. People who know how to share. The Sancho Panza to my Don Quixote, and vice versa.
