About Me

I'm really into Gottfried Helnwein, John Heartfield, Alexander McQueen, Emmanuel Swedenborg, Anthony Bourdain, Niles Crane and studying European history, especially royal lineages. I really want a cuckoo clock and a witch's silhouette weather vane. I love all things witchy, celtic, pagan, norse or south american. I get...restless. I want a new car and new hair pretty much every 4-6 weeks. I think everyone should be in therapy. I didn't think the masquerade orgy scene in Eyes Wide Shut was weird and I daydream about Pinhead (not A pinhead...THE Pinhead)taking me away from all of this. Cooking has become a fast hobby of mine lately (esp. Alton Brown and Mario Batali)-I knew I was getting old when I wanted ceramic mixing bowls more than new shoes. I read constantly, like even when you think I'm listening to YOU. I heart Amy and David Sedaris and would melt for anyone who cooked me a full English on a Sunday morning. I love all things Eastern and would be an Astrologer if I had more moxie. I think women have replaced cats with candles as the new sad thing. I would gladly pick you up in the middle of the night in the middle of nowhere or just sit with you in a comfortable silence. People with rhythm turn me on, as does self-effacing behavior. I have issues with authority masked as issues with responsibility. I'm perpetually late and I think baths are gross (human stew...gross!) I don't think I could possibly be more interested in Peter O'Toole
