she is a lesbian, radical feminist, cat lover, bibliophile, non-smoker, unitarian universalist (though she doesn't go to fellowship on a regular basis) and in the process of becoming athletic again. she dreams of being jeanne d' arc and swooping in and saving those that need saved (though she'd rather not be burned at the stake). she is a loyal friend who will do anything she can for those she loves, but she can flakey sometimes when her depression flares up. she is a loner. a southerner self-transplanted to the pacific northwest in 1998 and now believes that it doesn't rain enough here. she's known for her honesty, she can't help it, its the only way to be. she is 4'8" tall, and round. she has natural blonde hair and she also has blue eyes. she is very intense. she hates small and large crowds, she prefers the one on one or the one on a few. she has no idea what she wants to do with her life, though she would like to see more of the world than what she has seen so far (a good part of the continental united states) and she very much wants to be a mother. finally, she has huge crushes on alix olson and carolyn gage (these are from a far).

i consider randy my best friend in town. we met, hmm.. 2 years ago? 3 years ago? i'm not sure when our friendship started to blossom, but i'm glad it did. she puts up with all my insecurities and my craziness. she comes into my apartment and tells me that her place gets like mine does too. she holds my hand through lots of stuff.

and. she lets me hold her and through stuff too. she tells me that she's glad i was there through her most recent break up. that i was making sense about the things i was saying. that my reassurance is helpful. that i said the exact thing she needed to hear. recently she had a problem with her apartment. i told her she wasn't going to go through it alone, that we were going to go through this together, cause thats what friends do. and i ment it. and she appreciated it, and i felt needed. and i was grateful then to have her. cause i need to feel needed, and i need to know that i can be there for someone along with them being able to be there for me. it has to be a two way street.

randy is wonderful. i don't have many friends. thats just the way i am. but the ones i do have i'm pretty tight with. i'm glad that i can count her among the few.
