ABOUT ME

About ME, you ask?!?

+I fancy rain streaming down my face, running my mascara, cleansing my soul.

+I like to wander around sipping tea or malt barley beverages with friends.

+I have an unquenchable lust for books.

+ I work too much.

+If I had a tumor I would name it Marla.

+My weaknesses are deep dish apple pie and guys who wear eyeliner.

+I like sushi and creative urges.

+ I eat slow and deliberately.

+Shadows and waterfalls excite me.

+ I love words. . .except girth, I abhor its very existence.

xx,

Stephanie
