The kindest beast?

About Me

I am in what wikipedia calls my "quarter-life crisis" - that is, I have been spoiled rotten my entire life, and now that I am 'thrown' into the world on my own I am most certainly a little clueless. I am told this is not my fault- we are living in an age where 'job security' is a phrase no longer included in our lexicon, a bachelor's degree is no big deal, and we (boomerang generation) have been largely dependent upon the goodwill and babying of our parents well into adulthood. I blame society, most certainly not my parents. Do I prefer to addressed as a woman or a girl? The former sounds funny when applied to me. I FEEL the same as I did 10 years ago, except with a calm sense of confidence and sadness that I can't quite explain. The sad things are what I often accept as "just a part of being an adult". I am not quite sure what my contribution should be- but I know that what I am currently doing feels like the right thing- and the continuation of serendipitous situations occuring (lately, over & over) affirms this. I know what I ENJOY... I hope my dad was right when he told me 'do what you enjoy best and u will find success beyond your dreams.' click here

Movies:

There are some really shitty movies out there. I just watched the bike-geek-acclaimed American Flyers and was like- "was the end, for real?" What even happened? But! Serial Mom is the best. The next best is Trading Places. And then after that is Repo Man tied with The Triplets of Bellville. What about Pee Wee's Big Adventure? It's got a great soundtrack. Oh! Oh! and I LOVE Mars Attacks. And Human Nature.

Television:

Mine is only for movie-watching. But I do enjoy fine, quality programming such as Married with Children, Arrested Development, Mr. Show, and Strangers with Candy on my computer.

Books:

I currently have 3 half-finished novels I'm not actively working on.

Heroes:

It is now Jerry who performed CPR on his dog and Rescusitated him back to life. He is also a badass. Sorry Tavi.
