About Me



I'm almost always the last person to get served her meal when out at a restaurant with friends.

My Interests

Rainy, fall evenings inside. Americanos with soy milk and honey
Brownies, Dark, frothy beer
Finnish rye bread toasted with butter,
Goat Cheese
Mangoes and Sparkling blueberry juice.
Unagi and wasabi.

Photoshopping, painting objects and walls..
Attempting to knit and sew,
Ambient lighting, mood lighting.

YOGA, curling up on my right side.
Bollywood movies, Audrey Hepburn movies.
India, Africa, Tribal people.
Classic BMW's, Buddhist Monks,
Tidepools out on the island,
The desert, the beach.
Driftwood, rocks, the rain,
Observing people...
Random, mini roadtrip adventures. The scenic route.

Wide headbands, pulling my hair into pigtails.
High heels, white flip flops.
Skirts from Ann Taylor Loft.
Sending things to people. Kisses on cheeks,
sitting on laps instead of chairs.

I'd like to meet:


You know when people tell you that they saw someone who looks just like you? Well, I want to meet those people. Perhaps get a better clue of what I look like to people.

Music:

I find myself liking music more and more each day. I think that's what happens once you cut yourself off from crappy radio stations.

~ Devotchka
~ French Kicks
~ Yeah Yeah Yeahs
~ Pink Martini
~ Etta James

Those are the artists that you can find in my top played list on iTunes.

Oh, and...
The National.

I can't stop listening to them.

Movies:

If only my dvd player was working...then I'd actually be able to watch them. I'm not much the fan of movie theaters though. The people that go to the theater usually annoy me to no end.

Television:

TV has its time and place, but there is no place (aesthetically speaking) for a tv in my apartment.

Books:

I recently purchased Lolita. Just need to start reading it. I'm wanting to read those books that I've always heard about.
After Lolita I believe I'll move on to Madame Bovary and perhaps Dr.Zhivago which (by the way) is an excellent movie. Gorgeous cinematography throughout and makes me want to go to Russia all bedecked in fashionable fur (fake of course) in the middle of a blustery winter.

And yes, I'm now talking about a movie in my "book" section. I'm allowed.

Heroes:

My 'hero' will save me from a future of lonely cat lady days....

someday...

My Blog

Today I’ve decided...

that I am stuck, stuck, stuck in rut.   Nothing fun or different is happening in my own life and I am quite glum about this fact. I'm fine with my current situation so long as my life won't...

So preoccupied at times...

There are days I remain quite silent as a result of all the daydreaming   and...   alluring, lovely thoughts streaming through my mind. A collection of wishes, fantasies, every chick flic...

That single girl you know and love!

There is to be no more dating blogs forthcoming anytime soon if I can help it. I wish to take a break as the last few did little to impress at all. I want someone who will work for me. Someone wh...

The easy way or the hard way?

It's not quite the end of the month yet, but I have failed most completely at my goals. Oh well. It's not like I was actually taking them seriously. Plus I know that I do not look like the most approa...

Newest installment in the life of the dating Brooke.

? Dating in July ?   I've never read the book, "He's Just Not That Into You," but decided to flip through it the other day while out by the pool with Amanda. For the most part it was a humorous ...

Why is it...

that I had a sober 4th of July (yes, it's true) and I feel as if I am hungover today? Perhaps it's due to the fact that I was rudely kept awake by drunkards lighting off multiple fireworks in a r...

Leather skirts and horrendously, horrendous things...

I went to Red Light after work today and was browsing when I came across a black, leather skirt. Hmmmm....I've never tried on a leather skirt......Then I thought, "Shouldn't every girl have a leather ...

The birds...the birds...

  Anyone else out there being attacked by crows? We have this one viscious crow that hovers around where we park at work. He keeps swooping our heads as we head to the door. This morning I kept w...

A plethora of pain...

  on my left. My left back, up my left shoulder, left neck and even...my left earlobe. I feel like someone is pinching the hell out of my earlobe right now. It's quite the odd feeling. So I have ...
