southern gothic, prairie madness, the 100th meridian west, line etching with attitude, listening to both sides of records, dressing up real pretty, drinking red wine, slow dancing to juke boxes, sleeping under the stars, making wonderful meals with those i love, riding my cannondale through my neighborhood, memories of midnight trips to the turbines, drinking coffee late at night, parties with themes, vegetable gardens, wearing skirts, handwritten letters, sipping on sodas while reading fashion magazines, midmorning sunshine through curtains, boys in cycling caps, chess and tea before bed, the sound of cowboy boots on my floorboards, porch sitting whilst beer drinking, sestinas, slide shows, storytelling, good time warriors, sandhill cranes, halsey national forest, middle america, strip malls, colloquialisms, the flyover states, chimney rock, the mormon trail, the near south neighborhood, the boulevard neighborhood, rust bowl imagery, agricultural degradation
i like my music with a little twang, a whole lot of heart, and the kind of precision that may just rip you in two. i like my shelves piled high with reference materials, dictionaries, and books with characters with names like marco stanley fogg. i like people who feel like season changes, inspire just the same and cause shortness of breath, if only just for a few quick moments. i like food that is cooked with lots of garlic, a few sets of hands and handfuls of vegetables. i like walking to the natural foods co-operative around the corner, getting iced coffees and letting afternoons go to waste with my camera and tripod in hand. i live as fully as i can, fill it to the brim with love and try to stir something in others.we are here to inspire each other, let's give it a try.
