My Interests

I'd like to meet:

housemates to cook breakfast for; their eyes still sandy, wet, surprized.

Music:

friend's bands, marching bands, one man bands, dramatic key and rhythm changes that feel like freedom, and a general fondness for combinations of fiddles, accordians, and waltzes.

Movies:

Adaptation. Burnt By the Sun. The Cradle Will Rock. Reds. West Side Story.

Books:

Winterson: Lighthousekeeping, Vonnegut: Player Piano, Bradbury: The Martian Chronicals, Auster: The New York Trilogy, Saint Exupéry: Le Petite Prince, and Milne: Winnie the Pooh.

Heroes:

Georgia O'Keefe
