I am here for Friends

About Me

I like cars. I am one of those hopeless people who romanticizes past eras to show fault in current society. I have a hard time letting go. I love Jack Kerouac, Dylan Thomas, J.D. Salinger, anything artistic, learning how to make new foods with tofu, and funky shoes. I love old buildings. Brick row houses are cool. I like to go places I have never been before. The Haight district in San Francisco will always have a little piece of my heart ... I love the sun, fall in New England, soy lattes from The Atomic Cafe, and doing yoga at the beach. Anything at the beach is fabulous, for that matter. I tend to drink too much coffee.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:



Who Would I like to meet? Anyone who might have something to say that will affect the way I view or feel about the world. People who are as geeky as me when it comes to their books. Lost souls and good drinking buddies. Anyone who can make me laugh. Wanderers and poets, indians and cowboys, and people who know how to say, "to hell with it, let's enjoy this life anyway," and hold true to the sentiment! Good editors.
