I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

i live two blocks from bars that tout table shuffleboard, ping pong and skee-ball. and $1 happy hour oysters. five minutes away is a waterfront park. there are bocce ball courts if you walk south for fifteen minutes. and drive no less than thirty minutes southeast - you're at the beach.

My Interests

redwork, crosswords, crocheting, shopping on lunch break, thinking about curtains, talking too much, thinking about and talking about houseplants, tom yum soup, cookies from petrossian, thinking about and talking about oysters, pickle juice in tuna and holding onto the sweetest boy in the world.

I'd like to meet:

pulling up to the house with my favorite car in the driveway.

Music:

bon iver, for emma, forever ago

Movies:

red, white, blue, lost in translation, the english patient, dream a little dream, secretary, annie hall, royal tenenbaums

Television:

this american life archives instead..

Books:

garcia marquez, love in the time of cholera ..

Heroes:
