Early Years

Career

Aden Pennington's first job was the graveyard shift at a convenience store in a bad part of town. It was like Clerks but with far less excitement.

 

Since then she has worked for/in McDonalds, a grocery store deli, Microsoft, Buy.Com, Hollywood Video, Dress Barn, and Earthlink.

Aden Pennington is a file clerk extraordinaire. Her favorite thing about her job is she can listen to her iPod all day, and no more weekends!

Hobbies and Activities

Aden's hobbies are writing, crochet, spending too much time online, fondling hairy nutsacks, and reading.


She is very fond of gothic/industrial music, classic movies, Orson Welles, giraffes, comic books, table top roleplaying games, 80's new wave, and giraffes.

Stories

Aden's favorite teachers are Mrs. McCarthy because she watered that creative seed, Mrs. Napoli because she was just that awesome, and Mr. Smythe for the same reason.

Friends

Her closest friends are David, Tia, Carrie, Susan, Marc, and Gordon. All of whom she met online, which yes, is kind of weird, one she has met, and one she has a bond with that trascends anything like friendship or love.

Identity

Aden  is at her best in the morning now, she used to be one hell of a night owl, but then she got a real job and started to pretend to be an adult.
