Introduction i'm a Mrs. Adam, i live in the blue ridge mountains, i'm addicted to mary janes, i think guinness is good for you, and i can't imagine my life before i discovered pablo neruda. i'm actually paid to work in a library and help people find books all day - when i'm not answering obscure and sometimes bizarre reference questions, helping really old people botch up the internet, fending off weirdos, and geekishly telling teenagers to be quiet. everything makes me blush. i'm a big fan of british mysteries, pbs, this american life, npr, the bbc, and masterpiece theatre. in my dream world, joni mitchell would write my life story. i drink too much coffee. i'm awkward. i love farmer's markets and dream of being one of those cute hippie girls with a big organic garden, only i don't grow things very well. i can't decide if i'm a blonde or a redhead. music is my obsession. all year long, i keep a running count of how many days there are until fall. i read. i'm madly in love with england and feel like someday, surely, i will live in a little cottage by the english sea...
Interests for the purposes of summation on this particular blog: i like to write. it kind of keeps me alive and stuff.
Favorite Movies i have to say that i love girly films, especially period films. i love 'a room with a view', 'emma', 'pride and prejudice', 'persuasion', 'sense and sensibility', 'jane eyre', 'out of africa', 'moonstruck', 'dead poet's society', 'anne of green gables', 'breakfast at tiffany's', 'green card', and many many more. sort of.
Favorite Music i love music.
Favorite Books i love books.

Unlike a dog, how can a turtle ever be naked?

only in the privacy of its own home, naturally.
