About Me

I laugh easily just about all of the time. Oakland is home.

My Interests

Driving across the bridge or taking BART to SF too many times in one weekend. Sleeping. Wondering about things.

I'd like to meet:

People who do some of the things on this calendar with me:

Music:

is life, and life is livin'.

Movies:

Wicker Man, Wizard of Oz, Lost in Translation

Television:

Weeds. Flight of the Concords. Freaks and Geeks. Twin Peaks. Gray's Anatomy.

Books:

Jane Eyre, Harry Potter. Anything about a poor child who is treated poorly and unfairly by adults around them, I guess. Except that I don't like Charles Dickens that much. So maybe I lie. And I digress.
I'm reading The Emperor's Children right now by Claire Messud, and, 70 pages into it, cannot decide if I like it or if its too boring/intense at the same time.

Heroes:

Certain people with an honest heart. Really. And my beautiful, kind, and honest friends.

I want

so much to feel the beauty in life. To live in the moment. To sit here and just enjoy that I'm sitting here, on my beige couch, enjoying being home. Enjoying my cat staring at me, wanting something...

I really hate birthdays at this point.

Yesterday I turned 26. I'm definitely not thrilled about it. I've never been so sad on a birthday. Not that that was the only reason, but a large contributing factor. I'd rather never have a birth...
