Name: Katie
Age: 34
Location: Upstate New York
Tumblr/Goodreads/IG/etc: Goodreads

Describe yourself in five sentences or less: I'm an academic librarian from upstate New York. I'm an introvert who finds joy in theatre, reading, travel, national parks, mid-century modern design, craft beer, goats or llamas, crafts (knit/crochet mostly), museums, historic houses, history, Netflix binge watching, hiking, geocaching, food/cooking (I've been on a keto diet trying to lose weight) and penpals/mail/postcards.

Top 5 fandoms: I like things, but the concept of fandom has never really clicked with me. Some things I really like include Lord of the Rings, Hamilton (and maybe that could be expanded out to New York theatre in general), mail (from Postcrossing to stationery or stickers to penpals) and Disney (Disney parks, Disney movies - especially Disney/Pixar)
I mostly post about... Whatever's been going on in life. Sometimes it'll be fun travel stuff. Sometimes it'll be librarian-centric stuff. Sometimes it'll be boring, average, every day ( ... )

What would I do with my life without Netflix? :P

The worst part of the over-30 crowd is going to be aging out of the last few "young person" discount theatre ticket programs in a few months at 35. Don't they know I'm still poor?!?!

Nice to meet you!

I'm interested in adding you! I love the snail-mail world. I collect stationery. My favourite item is my uncle's old-school Faber-Castell draughtsman's mechanical pencil. He works on oil pipelines in the Middle East and North Africa. I'm going to his holiday home in Tunisia in January. I've never left Europe before so it'll be nice.

Want to be friends? We seem to have a ton in common - esp libraries, books, travel, penpals :) I haven't been lj-ing too much this year but I'm doing a lot of DECEMBER memes and hope to be better next year

It's been so exciting to get back into the penpal groove this past year - it's like I've rediscovered "my people." :) I just added you and look forward to getting to know you!
