I am here for Friends

About Me

I am a STORYTELLER...

My Interests

People and their stories... especially people who are not like me.

I love to ask questions. How did you choose your tattoos? What would your loved ones be surprised to learn about you? What's your obsession? (If you're reading this, I know you're the obsessive type!)

I can keep a secret, I promise. I'll tell you some of my stories if you tell me some of yours.

I'd like to meet:

You... ?

Music:

KEXP, 80s Alternative, Electronica, and a little bit of everything

Movies:

Love them all, even the bad ones. I watch more movies than anyone else I know.

Television:

No time, though I enjoy an occassional South Park and love old Twilight Zones

Books:

Screenplays, plays, fiction. Wish I had more time to read (maybe if I spent less time on myspace?)

Heroes:

People who do good things and don't care who notices.

My Blog

Some nasty shit...

Earlier this week, I went to a trendy cafe in downtown Seattle to do some writing and catch up on email.  A grande chai and a two of cups of water later, it was time to use the restroom...

The secret to living longer...

In Dr. Weil's latest book, he talks about aging gracefully.  It's not just about diet and exercise, but also stress relief, touching and being touched.  Can't argue with that.  But...

Nature is a language...

"Nature is a language.  Can't you read?" - Morrissey / The Smiths. Morrissey's lyrics are brilliant.  Like a dear old friend, those words comforted me through many a difficult time in the la...

Out of site, on my mind...

I'm supposed to be getting work done, but I can't get one of my myspace friends out of my mind space.  Obsessed?  Perhaps.  Enchanted?  Definitely.  Inappropriate?  Absol...

Two way street...

A police car pulls up beside me at a red light.  The officer looks over at me.  I play it cool.  If I stare ahead and keep my hands on the wheel, perhaps he won't recognize me.  I'...
