None Of This Nonsense, Please

| Name: | A. |
| Location: | San Diego, California, United States |
| Birthdate: | 1981-01-01 |
| Bio: | NEW! IMPROVED! EXPANDED! Ok, my bio officially needs changing. So: serious bio attempt starting in 3... 2... 1...
This is pretty much a book journal (I will include personal journalage as well, but books are my main topic of discussion). In case you have yet to guess, I love books, all books, but especially off-the-wall, unusual books; science fiction and fantasy books; written-for-children-but-good-for-adults books (and no, I don't just mean Harry Potter!); books about the mysteries of the universe, be they science or fiction or philosophy; plus any books not in the above catagories that are beautiful, or make me think, or introduce me to new worlds.
Also, apparently, I like badly written run-on sentences (in case you can't tell, this concludes the serious portion of our bio. We now return to your regularly scheduled program). Laughably enough, I can take grammar altogether too seriously at times, and have been known to work as a proofreader and editor. I am also co-founder/moderator of thelexicon, a community devoted to sharing cool words. If you are a fellow word-player, linguistics nut, or vocabulary vixen (?!), come check us out!
I also collect quotes, both from serious sources and from informal moments. Please share your favorites with me. I may start a fantastic-and-funny quotes community someday. Uber-kudos and brownie points (mmm... brownies!) to anyone who can identify the source of the quote that serves as title to my livejournal.
Quote from yours truly: "There are two things I can't put up with. Intolerant people... and hypocrites!"
p.s. (also serious) As I'm meeting lots of new people online now, I should probably mention: I am currently in a committed, monogamous relationship, and am *not* interested in any romantic/sexual entanglements outside of said relationship. Always happy to make new friends, though. People underestimate the value of friendship. |
