Older than most tumblr users (I was born in the 70's).
I am sure that will make a difference in what I post.
Please check out my blog before following.
I don't post many personal posts.
I am not an annoying fangirl. I do not jump on bandwagons and post EVERYTHING from them.
From Chicago, one of the greatest cities.
This is a place for my odds and ends I find that I love.
I do post quite a bit sometimes.
I will most likely post lots of quotes, movie and tv caps or stills, pictures of animals, and other random things that catch my fancy.
