Neat, soda back.

About Me

If you are a stranger with whom I have seemigly nothing in common, I will not be adding you unless you give away very clever t-shirts once a week. I also probably do not like your music/sketch comedy/knitting, but that's my own fault, I'm sure you're very good.Jersey girl from a family of Jews from Queens. Cat people. Naturally curly, assisted red. I would be an excellent eco-terrorist if I wasn't such a goddamned Buddhist. I drive a hybrid car, and yes, it makes me better than you. Yes you did just see me on tv. I can walk tightrope, but don't often find opportunities to practice, so that may no longer be true. I once had an intimate 4 hour drunken dinner in Morocco with Omar Sharif, who was impressed with my knowledge of state capitols and called my date a stupid c*nt. I want very much to travel more often by train.

My Interests

Hiking, parks, road trips, all manner of delicious food and drink, travel travel travel, matryoshka (those Russian nesting dolls), real estate listings, Montana, the fine art of living a life of leisure.

Charles Manson. Jim Henson. Tom Waits.I need a woman in there.Madeline Kahn.Smart, funny, well-traveled snappy dressers who are grown up enough to embarass themselves in public. Gut-following, anti-establishment types who relentlessly pursue a rich and improbable life while maintaining a balanced and happy self awareness.Also, a psychic who can tell me what my cat's life was like before I adopted her.

Movies:

Eternal Sunshine..., Magnolia, Being There, City Lights, Down by Law, Fight Club, Next Stop Wonderland, and some other movies.

Television:

Lately, a FABULOUS show called I Shouldn't Be Alive. Becasue it's true, the people on that show really should not. Also, Survivorman. And travel shows that allow me to feel rugged and adventurous without my eating bugs. Liberal-news-once-removed shows like The Daily Show and Real Time With Bill Maher. And shows that pays me to be on them. Those are the very best shows of all.

Books:

David Sedaris, Bill Bryson, William Langewische, Everybody was So Young, I'm mostly a non-fiction gal.(Since creating this list, I got an iPod and have forgone reading for podcasts. Please disregard.)

Heroes:

Don't watch it, but I went to school with the kid who plays the bad guy.
