My Interests

j, sitting on shannon's porch smoking cigarettes and talking about Jesus, playing awful renditions of broadway songs on the piano and singing really LOUD, getting espresso-upped and distracted at the best little coffee shop on the planet, dying my hair, crossword puzzles with my dad, allegory, going ALL out, things that make me go hmm, my boots, decorating, redecorating, painting with music, painting to music, feeling giddy, feeling clean, coming clean, taking nika to the park, walt whitman, fall fashion, being alone in crowded places, languages, unexpected kindness, below the surface

I'd like to meet:

JD Salinger, my mom's mother, stevie wonder, judy dench, walt whitman, jack kerouac .. Read my VisualDNA ™ Get your own VisualDNA™

Music:

Ani Difranco, Jason Upton, Juana Molina, Ida, Sigur Ros, bands who are desperately fighting to keep alive the art of making a record, as in a record of an event - the event of people playing music in a room...and Elton John, Tori, radiohead, coldplay, over the rhine

Movies:

anything with drew barrymore or cameron diaz...oh wait, movies i don't hate... annie hall, reality bites, finding neverland, casablanca, fletch, waiting for guffman, 50 first dates (just testing you), breakfast at tiffanys, stage beauty, high fidelity, sophie's choice, anchorman

Television:

its just on a lot

Books:

The Bible. Franny and Zooey. Blue Like Jazz. Harry Potter, sigh. Herbert Kohl and Jonathan Kozol books, they fascinate me into passion for my work... Humana Festival of New American Plays puts out a great little compilation every year

Heroes:

kelly mizell, you count. thanks for teaching me some of the craft. and shannon. thanks for teaching me some of life.

Oh, my soul

Oh, my soul. i really love how David addressed his own soul occasionally in his psalms. i think he was imploring, even commanding his soul to praise...to stop whatever other kind of turmoil or hype ...
