I have recently moved to Santa Cruz in search of some dreams that are only now becoming defined. At the top of the list? Finding a job working with at risk teens, preferably hand- killing a turkey and making gumbo out of it, embarking on a 2 year intensive woodworking class, becoming a ripping surfer, and hand making my Christmas presents for next year. Interestingly enough, the goal closest to fruition is the last as I may possibly be acquiring a lathe with which I can make all of you closest to me wooden salad bowls for Christmas. Sorry to ruin the surprise. Life is glorious.
Great books recently read: "Perfume: the story of a murderer", and "The History of Love". My favorite author is Jonathon Safron Foer.
