Hello Ms. Optimism,
Your profile was nice, very down to earth and honest. I especially liked, and I quote, "It's not about what I do, but the company I keep." I think this speaks highly of you, as it shows you have a good heart and love for you friends/family. This is a very important commodity to have and lacking in many people.
I must know: what makes nerdy? You mentioned it a couple times, but the only thing I could see that was semi-nerd was that you work in the Aerospace industry. In reality, I think falls on the "cool" side though :) What exactly do you do that allows for you to save money and make things run smoother?
