PaleBlueYacht's definitions
"I'm really good at acronyms. My taste in music is pretty eclectic... I like the accordion waaay too much. I'm awkward. A saucy pocket pixie who loves to play dress up and go off on tangents. I'd die if I didn't have sriracha, coffee, tootsie rolls or my vintage map of Austin. I'm the only girl in my choir covered in tattoos. I also spend a lot of time thinking about food."
