1 I am a metaphysical naturalist and have been called a militant atheist by some of my friends.(I always preferred the term devout)

2 I really like meeting people and pissing them off.

3 I hardly ever develop friendships but when I do they seem to last for life (for reasons see 2)

4 My favorite poem is the lovesong of j alfred prufock.

5 my favorite lines from my favorite poem are

Though I have wept and prayed, wept and fasted
Though I have seen my head grown slightly bald brought in upon a platter
I am no prophet and heres no great matter
I have seen my moment of greatness flicker
I have seen the eternal footman hold my coat and snicker
And in short I was afraid

6 The above quote was from memory so its probably fucked up.

7 I used to memorize lines of shakespear and poetry and parts of songs that I really liked.

8 I want to be independently wealthy and I am working on that goal. not that I am close or anything.

9 I have ecletic music tastes.

10 I smoke 3 packs of cigarretes a day, I have no desire to quit. after all, no one likes a quitter.

1. single white female

2. born in MO

3. daughter and I spent the nineties in Colorado mountains

5. I compete in a ridiculous series of elimination games at an online athletic club, wearing a pedometer that uploads my step count, so the other steppers see the data.

6. My personal best day is 44334 steps.

7. I�ve got a faint scar up the left side of nose; it�s a T-bone-ish scar pattern, stitched to repair a torn nostril.

9. I have not T-bone�d my nose in many years. <knock on wood>

10. See my �T-bone�d� word; Oriecat, I�m a word inventor too.
