i'm dreaming harder than you

About Me

myers-briggs personality code INTJ"If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't. And contrary wise, what is, it wouldn't be. And what it wouldn't be, it would. You see?"

My Interests

THIS WEEK: portriat painters, peacocks, circus themed novels, peonies, croquet, landscape design, spicy salmon hand rolls, intensive exfoliation, meichi, the word that changes my life, and horsies.

I'd like to meet:

"what was it cardinal lambertini once said to a lady wearing a splendid diamond cross on her decolletage? 'what joy it would be to die on that calvary!' well, how i would love to listen to those voices! but it is i who must beg your forgivness. i am from an age where one would have accepted damnation to pay homage to beauty."

Music:

if you know me you know music is not my artistic genre... but i love to learn about new things... this is what makes me happy now: sunny day real estate, the shins, misfits, jets to brazil, idaho, vic firecracker, velvet underground, women & children, david bowie, rena's unsane cd, quicksand, juicy's shiner cd, helmet, no knife, white stripes (just not live), sigur ros (only live), the cars, jesus and mary chain, mazzy star, elvire, iron & wine, beethoven, wagner, lush, the yeah yeah yeahs, ministry, grahm parsons, the kinks, bikini kill, nico, the monkeys, the who, the cult, witchcraft, the fire theft, ike rielly, victory at sea, songs played over cell phones

Movies:

willy wonka & the chocolate factory, grey gardens, everything is illuminated, the professional, time bandits, return to horror high, brazil, gone with the wind, the lost boys, royal tennenbaums, o brother where art thou, babydoll, iron monkey, house of 1000 corpses, closetland, who killed the electric car, marie antoinette, east of eden, house of yes, shaolin soccer, the french connection, little miss sunshine, psycho beach party, big fish, deadman, pantera home videos, whatever happened to baby jane, stranger than fiction, how to draw a bunny, everything is illuminated, shop girl, puppy, idiocracy, kung fu hustle, any sinbad movies from the 70s...

Television:

i'm part of the underclass in my household that is only permitted to touch the remote control after the television overlord has fallen asleep, but i think In Search Of was the greatest television show in all of television history

Books:

where do i begin... the DICTIONARY must be the most influential book on my life (and yours), of course i cant live without a pocket latin dictionary for the same reasons, i have a mild obsession with asian literature that was translated in asia, the classics pull my heart strings and make me bleed romantic, ts eliot is my god, any creative non-fiction with sociological or biological overtones, then the assorted: a season in hell, frankenstein, story of the eye, i lucifer, rest area, sarah, the odyssey, rastus reilly, secret garden, the monk, the tale of murasaki, labyrinths of reason, justine, born on a rotten day, the idiot, time's arrows (both the non & the fiction), alice in wonderland, mr vertigo, 69 things to do with a dead princess, the sparkling eyed boy, child of god, dv, holy terror, candy, shang hai baby, blood meridian, the end of alice, portrait of dorian gray, ficciones, alva & consuelo vanderbilt, venus in furs, the time travelers wife, coin locker babies, sex and the queen, claudine, villa incognito....
