I am just returning to swap-bot after taking some time off, and am excited to start swapping again.

I don't have any pets right now, but I am on the look out for a new puppy.

I love to travel and try new things. Some of my favorite places are Florence, London and a tiny little town in Tanzania called Monduli.

I love all colors! And I really like color combinations like chocolate brown and aqua, or plum and lime.

I love unique arts and crafts items, (just not anything too country-cutesy please).

I love to read. Just about any and everything. I've joined the vampire craze and love the Sookie Stackhouse books. I have a soft spot for fantasy books, (grew up reading Anne McCaffrey, Mercedes Lackey, etc.) and love to try new things. You can check out my library at LibraryThing.com

I love to make things! And I love different kinds of found objects, buttons, beads, and craft tools. Gears and clockwork pieces are a current obsession. Right now I've also gone crazy with felting and other fiber arts (I love to knit and crochet), but if I haven't tried it before, I'd love to now.

I think I have embarrassingly strong feelings about tv. I love anything from Joss Whedon (esp. Firefly), True Blood, Project Runway and the like, and all those crime dramas (CSI, Bones, Criminal Minds).

I love folk, pop, rock, alt, anything really, except country. There's always time for a good dance track, and I'm still listening to my '80s and '90s bands. Right now I'm obsessed with Ellen Rosner and the Barenaked Ladies.
