exploring the outer boroughs, watching low cost high quality theater downtown and in brooklyn, observing amateur performance art, esp if it involves nudity and touching displays of unabashedly mediocre talent, rubulad/complacent/blackkat/kostume kult/burning man and other art collective parties and events of wild behavior with wacky big-hearted characters, enthusiastic scheming about arts and crafts projects that sit on my bedroom floor, health food stores and restaurants, collections of wigs/scarves/fancy gloves and hats/flamboyant and vintage clothing, costuming, making trash into fashion and other conspicuous anticonsumption, garishly lovely tchotchkes and people, communities of underculture and shared progressive values and absurd fun
folks like me who work and play hard. i'd like to meet someone who's f-ing brilliant, passionate and talented, who challenges me and pushes me and inspires me, AND who can also go on an adventure bender to expand our horizons and feel some adrenaline. i have trouble meeting people aren't one or the other. diva socialists, idealogues, absent-minded professors, eccentric performers, passionate ranting intellectuals, dreamers who are doers, all invited.

dostoevsky, faulkner, and toni morrison are like comfy oatmeal to which i come home; the corrections by franzen; delillo; lord of the flies; sedaris; annie proulx for her wonderfully bizarre sentences; right now reading female chauvinist pigs, autobiography of a brown buffalo (about a crazy legal aid type lawyer like me), and mongo, about trash reuse in nyc; read the nytimes everyday and that keeps me pretty busy
