Brigitte

it's my gradual descent into a life i never meant

About Me

the details of my life are quite inconsequential.

"rely a bit too heavily on alcohol and irony, get clobbered on by courtesy, in love with love and lousy poetry" -the weakerthans.r{}

My Interests

fun, laughing, road trips, beer, movie nights, romance, shoes, adventures, the shore, losing at scrabble, museums, listening to songs on repeat, vintage posters, cheesy horror movies, nj lighthouse tours, cover bands

I'd like to meet:

stephan jenkins. myself in 10 years.

p.s. - i WILL NOT add your band if i do not listen to you, so PLEASE STOP trying to add me. it's freaking annoying.

Music:

third eye blind, copeland, american football, the get up kids, minus the bear, the smiths, death cab for cutie, mae, brand new, bloc party, underoath, jimmy eat world, the shins, the police, my chemical romance, counting crows, paulson, gatsby's american dream, regina spektor, fiona apple, fleetwood mac, led zeppelin, coheed and cambria, something corporate, the fray, thursday, anberlin, piebald, further seems forever, motion city soundtrack, etc. [too much to type here]

Books:

"the bell jar", "down and out in paris and london", "gone with the wind", "portrait of the artist as a young man"....although my time lately is consumed with political literature, which i suppose i'm okay with also.

Heroes:

vincent d'onofrio (aka "bobby" goren)...man, i wish i could know everything about everything and solve crimes by myself.
