Hello, everyone! I'm new. So here's a little introduction:

I was born in the middle of-- Just kidding.

My name is Katie, and I recently moved back to Seattle after a 9-year jaunt in Chicago whilst getting a degree I'm somehow unable to utilize. I'm sarcastic, creative, and always willing to have an adventure--or a nap. I love art and words and lots of coffee. I have a husband of six years and we had a dog, but I had to put her down on September 1st. This is a year full of strangeness and change-ness. The loss of my dog is an entirely terrible experience, and since we can't get another dog right away, I'm trying to heal my soul by filling it with things.

One of those things is a typewriter. I'll introduce it in the "new acquisitions" board, for the sake of organization.

One of those things was also an original (and absolutely useless) Polaroid camera, but I won't share that here. This information is just to further remind everyone that I'm currently in "hoarder" mode and am frequently sad, so don't tempt me with more typewriters or Girl Scout Cookies or even a good deal on pencils because I will say YES. You may bombard me with dog pictures, however, as I can keep those without any negative consequences. 

Nice to meet ya'll. 

It's a 1946 Royal Quiet De Luxe, in basically perfect condition. My oldest sibling thinks that 71 years "isn't old" but if you met a 71-year-old human being in perfect condition you would certainly be impressed.
