Hi there.

I guess this will be one of those "hi, My name is **** and I am a QA" posts that goes on and on about me and why I belong in this community. I dont know yet as I have not actually started to write the post except for the above non-sense.

Anyway, I feel like the epitome of quirkyalone and am SOOOO happy to see that I am NOT alone. All of my friends are getting married and having kids. In fact, I just witnessed an online wedding at The Little White Chapel in Vegas between two friends of mine who are going to be parents in about 7 months. I'll have no part in the whole marriage or kid thing. I did it once and it was not amusing. I didnt even like the guy - but I cowed into the pressure and well ... he was there and he asked.

How callous of me - and random.

So, I live alone - sort of. I have a dog named Miro' - she's 12.5 years old and "my life" (I dont care if that sounds pathetic). I'm 35, work as an administrative assistant, and go to college. My spare time is filled with reading, studying, LJ-ing, knitting, drinking massive quantities of coffee, and daydreaming. I also have many friends - most of which are couples or want to be part of a couple. I dont understand them at all as they dont understand me.

I've always been a QA - throughout my entire life. I have friends and have had my share of romances. I still allow myself to crush on people (hey, I have eyes AND a sex drive) but when push comes to shove - I'd just rather not "go there." My best friend is a QA too - but I dont think he has ever put a lable to himself like that. He once said to me, "There are people out there who are just not meant to be with anyone - they are meant to be alone... You and I are part of that group. It's not a bad thing - just not readily accepted by the masses."

Anyway, there's my rambling intro.

BTW: My LJ is set to friends only mode when I post so... add me or not. Just let me know where you are going from (this community). I'll most likely add you back - just beware that when I get bored at work... I am an insane posting maniac.
