My Ideal Person:
I'm looking for something that I'll probably only know you have once we meet. I’m a sucker for really great chemistry, as I guess most people are. But really, I love that feeling! I’d like a guy that is emotionally checked in and wickedly fun and funny. Someone that is confident and will appreciate that I’m simultaneously incredibly independent and a big, sappy, romantic. I’m pretty open-minded and generally like most people until they give me a reason not to. Surprise me.

• The last great book I read
  The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao.
• The celebrity I resemble the most
  I don’t look like anyone you would know. Just this other
  chick that people say they've spotted around the city.
  I'm totally keeping an eye out for her so I can kick her
  ass.
• The best or worst lie I've ever told
  I suck at lying. Really. I do.
• If I could be anywhere right now
  At this moment...I’m pretty happy to be exactly where I
  am - minus the whole writing of the personals profile thing
  - which I am also doing while at my sometimes boring job.
  If I had to pick one other place though it would probably
  be somewhere in Italy - I've never been and suddenly
  I'm obsessed with being there, like right now...or
  30 minutes ago.
• Five items I can't live without
  My family and friends, buildings - beautiful buildings,
  delicious food, laughter, the drunk guy perpetually sitting
  in front of my building that calls me "pretty lady"
  every, single day (and yes, I realize he's drunk and
  probably a little blind).
• Fill in the blank: _____ is sexy; _____ is sexier.
  A drunken makeout session is sexy; calling me the next day
  to plan a follow-up session is sexier.
• In my bedroom one will find...
  Dark blue walls and a big, comfy bed. It's just about
  all that fits in there...
