NOTE: I'm pretty busy these days and no longer that active on Swap-bot. I still stop by here for a swap or two every once in awhile, but it might take me a bit longer to respond to messages or leave ratings.

I enjoy sending swaps about as much as I enjoy receiving them, so I do not flake and I ALWAYS send my swaps. I am usually on time, but occasionally something will come up and I'll be a day or two late. If it's been awhile and you haven't received it, please let me know. Sometimes things get lost in the mail, and I would rather resend the swap than have you rate me poorly.

I have a pretty short attention span, so my hobbies tend to cycle. I have been known to enjoy: drawing, painting, writing (stories and letters), playing piano, hiking, camping, biking, yoga, running, skiing, cooking, watching movies, etc.

I like cats. I also like pretty/cute stationery, but not the stuff that's so cute that it's scary.

Right now I'm into: drinking tea, reading, seeing plays, doing yoga, fountain pens, and trail running.

Gilmore Girls, Sex & the City, Friends, Downton Abbey. But I don't really watch much television, as you can see by how out-of-date my favorites are.
