About Me

Significance makes my world go 'round.

My Interests

Being "wowed" is the meaning of life, caring, experience(s), expression, humans, *contextual* honesty, waking up next to someone, relearning my old vocabulary/proper spelling, people who really know what they are doing, in/outside, trying to act better than I am, transition, enjoying culture with other people, think/feeling, tennis, professional advancement, politics, electioneering, law, thinking about tomorrow, giving the benefit of the doubt, my ipod, drunk and flirty social situations, scenic driving (walking, nowadays), eye contact, faith, lists, being moved, dichotomy, saying "and" and/or "or"...

I'd like to meet:

People who are not made of plastic.

Music:

The kind that goes "boom boom" or "boo hoo".

Movies:

fellini, allen, anderson, goddard, aronofski, bergman, nichols, kaufman, bunuel, truffaut - films that can be likened to works of art or extraordinary satire rather than just "movies"

Television:

family guy, office (the original), basketball, arrested development, northern exposure, twin peaks, curb...

Books:

This Side of Paradise is manifesto-esque for me (for better or for worse), Bret Easton Ellis is a heavy-hitter - almost as consistent as Fitzgerald. The Little Prince and the Winter of Our Discontent are great. Vonnegut is cool; Salinger is sweet; Hofstadter is a poet as far as historical analysis is concerned;Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail 1972 made me yearn for politics again; books that dissect law, society, or the individual in cool and unique ways - fiction/nonfiction - are always at the top of my list (on top of anything, really)....

Heroes:

Amory Blaine in seven years. Abe Lincoln.

Ever Get the Feeling You've Been Cheated?

I have been writing in my journal a lot, thinking about a bunch of stuff that does not make it on paper, etc. I do not know what's up with this impulse to express ideas outward (reminding the world of...

The Fundamental Scott

So, par usual, I am getting more tired and reflective as the daylight shortens. Typically, I consider this a seasonal "dysfunction", but maybe it isn't? This afternoon, I was sitting on my stoop, watc...

Gattaca, how apropos....

I am about to throw Gattaca onto the tele. It will surely move me like nothing else could. Which I guess makes me a lucky person, since it is a story of an unlikely success; nay, the actualization of ...

Soundtrack to being 22

So I decided that as a birthday tradition I will make a cd of the more significant songs from the past year. Hopefully I will be able to remember/enjoy/lament memorable moments/feelings by listening t...
