About Me

I like:
-laying on the floor and listening to old records on warm nights...
-my hands covered in top soil...
-long drives on country roads...
-the way it feels driving over the bay bridge and seeing the city lights when I've been gone too long
-drinking coffee in oversized mugs while sitting on overstuffed chairs
-cigarettes
-deep thoughts
-breakfast at inappropriate hours...
