Name: Chris

Age: 29

Location: Missouri

How do you identify?: Lesbian and genderqueer

Interests/hobbies: I cross-stitch video game characters. I play Magic and Munchkin and way too much Plants vs Zombies. I'm trying to get back into riding my bike. I used to play co-ed ice hockey until I almost broke my neck, now I play paintball. I coach a middle school robotics team. I want to go back to school to become a mechanical engineer.

Favourite books: Asimov's Robot series, Scalzi's Old Man's War series, Card's Ender's Game series (his personal politics are atrocious though), and I'm finally getting into the Dresden Files series

Favourite films: The Lord of the Rings trilogy; Shawshank Redemption; Fried Green Tomatoes; Tank Girl; the original three Star Wars; The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert; Sneakers; any and all Star Trek films

Favourite music: Sandi Thom, Styx, Boston, Catie Curtis, Rush, Tom Petty, and of course Jonathan Coulton

What would you like to send/receive?: I wouldn't mind sending a video game cross stitch to someone who would enjoy it. I always like finding surprises in the mail.

Who would you like to send and receive mail from?: I'm not particular.

What countries would you like to receive mail from and send to?: I will send just about anywhere but unfortunately I only speak English. I took Japanese in high school and have forgotten nearly all of it.

Anything that you would particularly NOT like to receive?: nothing that would get me in trouble with my wife or that I wouldn't want the kids to see

What would be in your dream letter or package?: a deed to a house in Vermont with a job offer attached

Anything else you'd like to add?: My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die. Also, I am a dork.

Picture: This was right before I left for a float trip on the Missouri River. I don't typically wear camo in public otherwise :o)
