When I attempted to submit my profile, it was indicated to me that I had to write four sentences. Apparently a few solid lines of hyphens aren't acceptable -- Plenty of Fish, you're just too smart for the likes of me. So I will write a few lines to satisfy the requirements of this site.

Let's see...I don't own a television -- or ever plan to (not that that's in any way remarkable) -- so I know nothing of the latest celebrity gossip, what's happening in the world of reality t.v., the latest hockey, basketball, or football scores. I do, however, love to read and catch the occasional lecture on Ted.com.

I'm not interested in nightclubs or lounges, etc. (Okay, not entirely true, I do like to go out dancing once in a while to the smaller, less popular venues -- trance, drum and base, anyone?) I just happen to be of the opinion that there are more interesting things to do and see and so little time in which to do them. So feel like jetting off to Mongolia or Morocco any time soon?

Well, that certainly turned out to be more than just a few lines...

Anyway, I'll sign off with one of my favorite quotes from Tom Robbins: "You should never hesitate to trade your cow for a handful of magic beans."

Addendum: I'm trying to wrangle some candid/in situ photos from friends...That being said, I'm not on this site to dupe anyone by misrepresenting myself in any way. Really, why waste people's time? So on the topic of appearances: Yes my photos are current; I am exactly 5'8" tall; I weigh 130 lbs (roughly a size 4, really and truly); no, I don't wear coloured contact lenses (since some have asked, just thought I'd mention it); and all my teeth and digits are intact (for now, anyway) :)
