Just pretend I said something witty.

Bio
I've tried numerous times to write something here that can sum up in a few graceful words just who I am and what I do. Much as I hate to admit defeat, I have now come to the conclusion that this is impossible. So here is a highly flawed summary:
- I like lots and lots of books and am forever accumulating them...
- ... and I then proceed to catalogue them on LibraryThing. Because I'm just *that* geeky.
- 80s cartoons have shaped my view on the world to quite a terrifying degree
- I have a tendency to have exciting and involved ideas and then never act on them because it's far too much effort.
- I'm ridiculously clumsy, and mistakenly injure myself (frequently) and those around me (less frequently).
- I love going to see live music, but can't afford to do it as much as I'd like (although I've seen Cara Dillon four times now).
- I have a secret yearning to be a frustrated artist of some kind, but so far it's only extended to making stabs at patchwork.

Oh yeah, and cheese is great.

That's about it.
