First of all, my name is Laurie, I hail from some no-name place in Michigan and I have a pet cat named Sophie.

I hate my dad, dislike my sister, and am an exact, down to the height, replica of my mother.

I have more best friends than just 'friends' and would give my life for them.

I hate pushy, egotistical, haughty, pervy or, generally, smelly men.

I have a boyfriend. So don't hit on me.

I hate cliches.

My favorite colors are teal and silver.

I like to reuse names in my stories because I get attached.

I'm an fanfiction writer and am very much obsessed with my writing.

Writing is my life; sometimes it even takes over my social life (aka: NANOWRIMO)

I like reviews, as long as the criticism involved is constructive. (No FLAMES or you die in the flames of HELL!)

And, if you haven't already noticed, I like to make strange shapes with my free line prose. Especially poetry and monologue spiels (like this one)

Love,

Aislin

FAVORITE QUOTES:

Jack: Up is down. That's just maddingly unhelpful. Why are these things never clear?

Spike: (to Angel) You were my sire, man! You were my... Yoda.

Spike: I'm saying that Spike had a little trip to the vet, and now he doesn't chase the other puppies anymore.

Spike: Passions is on and Timmy's down the bloody well, and if you make me miss it I'll...
Giles: You'll what? Lick me to death?

Spike: Help me out here Spock, I don't speak loser.

Spike: The bird's dead, Dru. You left it in a cage, and you didn't feed it, and now it's all dead, just like the last one.

Spike: (to Buffy) Oh, yeah, okay. Let me guess - you won't kill me? Ooh. The whole crowd-pleasing threats and swagger routine. Outstandingly original. You know, I'm just passing through. Satisfied? You know, I really hope so, because God knows you need some satisfaction in life besides shagging Captain Cardboard. And I never really liked you anyway. (...) And you have stupid hair.
