An awesome place I've visited:

Whatcom Falls in Bellingham, WA. It is so pretty. I am planning an Amtrak trip from Seattle > Chicago > Pittsburgh and back again, though.

My perfect Sunday:

Getting up early to go to Quaker Meeting, then for a tasty, homemade brunch and leisurely stroll

My life history in 5 sentences or fewer:

Almost got married at 19. I went to college instead, where I designed my own degree. After college I spent two years in AmeriCorps. The future involves lots of traveling and probably grad school.

My first concert / My dream concert:

Yanni (I'm not kidding!) / Amanda Palmer opening for Sleater-Kinney and/or The Gossip. Why not?

I have a weakness for guys/girls who:

Are sassy but kind-hearted

For me, a first date no-no is:

Telling me all about your relationship with your ex, your previous drug use, or playing on your mobile device.
