I am here for Friends

About Me

Some people think I am very even-headed - someone even said like a tugboat I just keep on going no matter what. Other people think I am irrational, emotional, neurotic, and obsessive. How can both be true, and why would anyone want to know someone who posessed these very much opposed characteristics? I don't know.

My Interests

biking (bicycling) - especially in the city, russian novels, other good novels, canoeing, teaching, cooking, writing, rock climbing, listening to music, playing music, computer junk, watching movies, walking around.

Music:

a lot

Movies:

the abyss, ghostbusters, zoolander, the big lobowski, the royal tannenbaums, lord of the rings tril, woody allen movies, super troopers

Books:

Fiction that is good. Currently am into popular Russians (Tolstoy, Solzenitzen, etc). Also Oe and Gordimer, both off of a recommendation by my friend Olivia who is always right about these things. I'm not quite able to read super visual, messing-with-language stuff like Pynchon (Gravity's Rainbow), but I'll get there one day.
