Hello there! I'll tell you a little bit about me and what I'm here for, and maybe something about me strikes your interest... yay, right?

I'm Ella, a 36-year-old stepmom of 2, but mostly stay-at-home-cat-mom because the kids are only with us part time. There isn't much I'm not into. I like something from every genre of music, I love film and tv across genres. I grew up with a Super Nintendo (and subsequent game systems) and have a real soft spot for gaming in general: tabletop, card and video games. I'd say I'm a variety gamer. << This isn't all I talk about, nor is it my whole personality (the video games/gaming). No pressure either way on playing games together, I am happy to play on my own/on my own time if you're not into it! I read and listen to audiobooks and love getting recommendations from folks (again, genre doesn't matter). I dabble in crafts: small sculpey clay critters, diamond paintings, painting, drawing. I'm a better baker than I am a cook but I don't do either as often as I'd like.

I enjoy learning about people's day-to-day lives. Nothing is inane to me, really. I like to talk about... pretty much anything. I am a pretty open person but I know not everyone wants to hear about every topic. Happy to share, though!

What my deal is/what I'm looking for: I am very much a stay-at-home extroverted introvert. I am on disability for mental health things and am unable to work a full time job, so I'm around a lot, during the day (say, between 8am and 4pm Monday-Friday EST). Husband and I spend quality time in the evenings and weekends are generally busy with family stuff or travel, so it's not to say that I can't check or respond to messages after 4pm or on the weekend, but instances of my availability to chat away are limited by the things mentioned. Ideally, I hope for anyone interested to reach out, and maybe a few truly vibe. I may not be everyone's cup of tea, but I think I'm a pretty decent bean. I'm not picky, just please be mature 20s . Looking for folks who like to chat, even if it's about little stuff sometimes.
