if I was more down to earth, I'd be underground....

About Me

I'm passionate about my friends, family and my love for music. music: last.fm/user/bluflower/

I can tell you how to get to Sesame Street!
I was on set, when Tony Bennett did this:

My Interests

music, film, television, photography, writing, life

I'd like to meet:

Generally, I love to meet people. Sometimes, I completely enjoy being in the middle of it all, a crowded room. Other times, it terrifies me. Long time friend, Jeremy sums it well when he calls me an "extroverted introvert."

Music:

without music, I'd be dead....

Movies:

I prefer good/great ones. if you were to ask me what film I enjoy the most? the Little Fugitive, a 1953 b&w film that follows a 7 year old boy who runs away to Coney Island.

Television:

it's my job.

Books:

zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance
reading it made me realize that I'm not a freak after all, just completely misunderstood.

Heroes:

my grandmother McArdle
(3/16/1915-12/15/2006)

She raised my father as a single mother in Atlantic city in the 30s. I'm thankful for her stubbornness and resiliency. Luckily, I've inherited it.
