I'm a girl who remembers what 'alternative' music really meant, and I still love it. New Yorker at heart, I love to cook, go out to drink, and wander around my beautiful city.
Generally: reading, writing on occasion, watching too much TV, generally anything filed under 'pop culture', movies, museums, gardening (yeah, a challenge in these parts) cooking. Anything Seuss or Henson. I also have an odd collection of Trivial Pursuit games that I can't seem to win. Go Figure.
