About Me

i enjoy going to the library and brainstorming with friends. i'm obsessed with the idea of starting something- a band, a magazine, a chit-chat group...something. shoot, i love girl talk. i love movie musicals and old tv shows. phil spector is my favorite producer and i hope he's found not guilty so he can get out and make an album with amy winehouse. i'm learning how to sew - slowly but surely.

"when in was a teenager, i thought i might be the anti-christ."
"so what?" i asked sullenly.
"so i know about emotional turmoil."
"okay." i sighed. "what did you do?"
"i checked my hairline for triple sixes and luckily found two sixes and a nine. 'whew,' i said to myself, 'that was a close one.'" -lorrie sprecher
