About Me

Someone once told me I'm pleasant.

*

I have a vegetable garden in my living room. I like to cook foods from scratch. I believe in living gracefully with mother nature, which goes hand in hand with my outlook on everything from health to politics. I like to knit and sew but don't make enough time for it. I'm in an ongoing battle against thyroid cancer, but it's just one more reason to eat better and get more exercise. I like to bike ride and hike up mountains. I love the city at night. I love a good party but desire a close-knit group of friends. I like sunshine on a cold day and a cool breeze on a warm day and toes in green lush grass any day. I love the view of the mountains from my balcony and the view of the stars from my couch. A boy named Jason is the best thing life handed me.

Unstrung Heroes makes me cry every time I see it.

Visually stunning. Foreign films. Old black-and-whites. Musicals (The Sound of Music, Annie, The Little Mermaid, etc.).

The Daily Show. The Colbert Report. Democracy Now! [adult swim] but most notably Home Movies, Mission Hill and Boondocks. Turner Classic Movies. Seinfeld. Frasier. There are plenty other guilty pleasures.

Books:

Kerouac. Biographies. Autobiographies. Books meant for learning. I have boxes and boxes and boxes and boxes.... and no shelves =(
Right now I'm really enjoying Animal, Vegetable, Miracle.
