About Me

I'm a huge nerd.

My Interests

Writing creatively, beautifully flowing conversations, metaphors, movies, and mind-readers.

I'd like to meet:

Someone worth talking to who will show me the ropes and expand my horizons.

Music:

CocoRosie, The Album Leaf, M. Ward, Modest Mouse, Regina Spektor, Joanna Newsom, She & Him, Devendra Banhart, The Kings of Convenience, Broken Social Scene and Atmosphere.

Movies:

Pulp Fiction, Battle Royale and The Dark Knight are my faves. I've seen a lot of movies and I know a lot about them mostly in part to Curtis who lives and breathes cinema.

Television:

X-Files (I want to marry Mulder), Twin Peaks (Log Lady is the best), Arrested Development (sweet pink mouth), and The Twilight Zone (Rod Serling).

Books:

I'm a big fan of literature but I also love comic books. Graham Greene is my main man.

New York Nights, in progress, revision 2

The sky had a thick, tar quality to it that night. It was almost as such that if I reached my hands to touch the stars my fingers would come back down layered with glistening, stinking goo, up to my k...

Traffic

Seasoned apples,a Granny Smith,a Golden Delicious,a Red Rome,all stacked in a row,each one taking it's turn,frustrating me and my neighbors.

Backwards

On the stairs there are black, tattered, "old man" shoes. Further down, are another pair, not as tattered, and hardly worn. I own both pairs. The different shoes illicit different stares. What's in a ...
