my friends, my records (oh and melting up scratched vinyl into other things), thrift stores, vintage kitsch, shoes, ziggy's in nyc at midnight on mondays (best live fusion ever!), scooters, tattoos, punk and metal karaoke at arlene's grocery, road trips, laughing 'till you giggle like a little kid on too many pixie stix, reading, mail art, my 'puter (the supped up intellivision), video games, good pubs (and great beer), good wine (and especially drinking good wine at a place like "dinky docks"), trading, zines, the smell of vinyl and old books, being "drunkin' hines", that moment where eyes lock perfectly, blushing, silliness, my bike , zombie movies, anything hal hartley touches, doug's mobiles (http://dougrhodehamel.com), renegade art projects, fan-fucking-tabulous desserts, first smooches, e.e. cummings, going to shows, the place called "our beach", feeling inspired, and when someone else makes the coffee.
people who understand "if you wanna go to heaven, you gotta raise a little hell" (and if those people can tell me what documentary that is from...many many many awards!), people who want to buy me things like wowsville records in new york, waterloo records in austin, zia's records circa 1998 in AZ and the like. people that realize that playing with my hair solves all the worlds problems. people that understand the importance of smooches on the forehead. people that can get past saying, "you are SO tiny" without actually letting the words pass their lips. oh! and milo aukerman of course...duh.
