The Yellow Ribbon Campaign: Free the Creative Soul

 

This is me, well, as close as you're gonna get without me uploading some hideous photo of myself. Here's some vitals for the statisticians amongst you:

Name: Trudi      Height: 5'8"     Hair: Auburn/Brown, curly      Eyes: Brown

Nicknames: various depending on which one of my flatmates is talking to me and what exactly they want. If I'm loitering on the net it'll be as Tyger (my nic since the year dot)

Age: 26...and not getting any younger

Education: I have a degree in Economics so you're probably either incredibly impressed or you think I'm a complete loser.

Likes: Cats, Orange Smarties (hint hint), Jameson's whiskey (even bigger HINT), home-made macaroni cheese, my second-hand leather jacket and my German Army Surplus para-boots. Oh and this guy:

and this one too:

my long suffering other half Steve, who is now ruing the day he gave me his spare scanner. haha

Dislikes: English weather, why does it always rain during the holidays? Having to work for a living, suffering permanent Bad Hair, doing the washing up every night (I'd use paper plates but I have this guilt thing about trees)

Wants to: own a big bike and act in a movie but I'd be crap. Failing that can I please marry someone rich? (only joking Steve!)

Most cherished possessions: My Movie Logan action figure, my Bodem coffee mug, my Factor 6 billion suntan lotion, my pootah and my British Racing Green Gossard Wonderbra. (Unfortunately I wasn't drawn by a Marvel Comics Artist)

Things I wish someone would hurry up and invent: A way for the human body to survive without the need for sleep. A 100% works every time hangover cure. A six foot long shoe horn to get me out of bed until the invention of item number one.

I run The Web Chick Site Awards. If ya wanna know what it's all about or you have a site to nominate, hit the 'lil pic of Storm:

By the way did I mention that I like this guy:

I did? Are ya sure?

 

I live just north of London, England, in a house I share with 4 men. Life is so hard. I work for an Internet company during the day and at night I write short stories and fan fiction for an X-Men website.....hmmm...Wolverine....dammit woman, snap out of it *slap*. Writing can be hard, especially when you have several male flatmates hanging over your shoulder going, "Have you got to the dirty bit yet?" Grrrrr...

Music wise, if it's loud and/or fast I like it! My Winamp directory is full of Metallica MP3's (all recorded from genuine, bought from the store CD's so you can kiss my arse), Nine Inch Nails, Pearl Jam, Black Sabbath etc. None of which I downloaded from Napster!! and I'm broke anyway so there's no point trying to sue me.

I enjoy thrillers and horror books, especially stuff by James Ellroy and Jeffrey Deaver and the English horror writer Shaun Hutson who is my God!

Games wise, if it involves big guns and exploding body parts, I'll play it!
