Since I'm new here and just trying to figure this thing out at the moment, I figure an "about me" list sounds like a nice first list, right? So here we go, the girl behind the monkey:

  • female
  • 30-something
  • displaced American, permanently in Europe now
  • loves books, travel, photography, animals, horror, rain, monkeys/apes, office supplies, writing, LISTS, movies, proper spelling & grammar, etc...
  • married
  • vegetarian (ethical, moral, environmental, and health reasons)
  • packrat, loves to collect things
  • short
  • quiet, introverted, socially anxious
  • loyal, honest, dependable, easygoing
  • stubborn, hard-headed, short-fused
