Dear Red Sox: THANK YOU. Love, Victoria

About Me

My Name Dot Com gets you to my words, images, clips and more.

Me in a nutshell: writing, trying to be witty (often failing), cheering on the Red Sox, capturing things in visual form, wearing orange, drinking lattes, exploring the city, working on phrasing, talking music and theatre, scheming up new (mis)adventures, jogging, gym-ing, eating Flour's banana bread like it's my job, curling up with the cat, trying to figure out how to get Josh Radnor to marry me.

My Interests

Words. Photography. Music. Boston. Laughter.

I'd like to meet:

New faces. Old friends. People with passion and those who search for a little bit of extraordinary each day.

Music:

Among others: Radiohead, LCD Soundsystem, Patrick Thomas, Jamie Randolph, Ani DiFranco, Matt Nathanson, Ryan Montbleau Band, Chad Perrone, Coldplay, Syd, Counting Crows, Tides, Andrew Sutherland, Rilo Kiley, Ollabelle, The Long Winters, The Postal Service, Amy Winehouse, Lily Allen, Stephen Kellogg and the Sixers, John Mayer, Tori Amos, Gregory Page, Andrew Bird, Rocky Votolato, The Stills, Melissa Ferrick, Speechwriters LLC, Stevie Wonder, The Talking Heads, Simon and Garfunkel, The Beatles, The Dresden Dolls, Cat Power, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, Earth Wind and Fire, Rufus Wainwright, Jeff Buckley.

Movies:

The Lion in Winter, Good Morning Vietnam, High Fidelity, Footlight Parade. Baseball movies. The Shawshank Redemption, Singin' in the Rain, old Hollywood musicals. James Cagney black and whites, The Dead Poets' Society.

Television:

My Boys. Entourage. Sox games. Ricky Gervais programmes. CSIs. Grey's Anatomy. How I Met Your Mother.

Books:

I want to write one. In the meantime, I read many.

Heroes:

I like to believe that I am occasionally funny.

Today's Bostonist Sports Redux features an open letter to Dane Cook. Em, don't think that I didn't think of you as I wrote it. ;)http://bostonist.com/2007/10/24/sports_redux_an_1.php
