About Me

Anemia is getting me down.

My Interests

I read and write essays mostly.Besides that I avoid going out. I don't get drunk, which means that I notice when bars and parties are the same as they were last weekend and the week before and the week before.....I like your cat. Probably not your dog though.

I'd like to meet:

People taller than me. People smaller than me. People with crooked teeth. People into hardcore, circa 1992.

Music:

Anti-parent culture sounds

Movies:

Just Wet Hot American Summer over and over. What else is there, really?

Television:

You mean the one that is yellow with diagonal lines through it that goes out everytime the 6,7, or 71 bus goes by? No, I don't think I watch that one. I do, however, watch Project Runway at Shad's house. Can't help it.

Heroes:

My Mom, Oscar Wilde, Beau Brummell, David Bowie... Max Weber, Erving Goffman, Georg Simmel, Emile Durkheim, and Thorstein Veblen. Oh, and this lady
