About Me

I'm terrible at Chess but a legend at Scrabble. I have puzzle fever. I puzzle it up with crosswords and coffee. You can really get me reeling with some trivial pursuit and a brew or two.


My Interests

Local music scene, fast music, slow music, music that makes me hungry, music that makes me feisty, music that makes me randy, music that makes me sleepy, karaoke, singing terribly, singing well, drawing funny faces, cake fights, long open spaces, twirling, coffee and crosswords, cabbage, panoramas, apples to apples, taking photos, spying on people through my windows, scrabble, sushi, tattoos, local brews, dirty martinis, Portland


I'd like to meet:

People that that don't cook from the box-- I like simple fare, whole fare, lacking from American processed fare. Give me the goods without the plunder. I like garnish and large platters. I like mismatched spoons and plastic champagne flutes. I like fellow puzzlers. I like quirky people. City people. Independent people. Self-assured people. Ego-tastic people. Loud people. Obscure people. Hungry people. Sexy people.


Music:

I only really like people in music who shake their jugs and bums and keep it real.

Movies:

Cliche artsie things in different languages and anything Jean-Claude Van Damme

Television:

PBS and the Christian Broadcasting Network- Pat Robertson is effing so hot!

Books:

Yes please

Heroes:

dead people

Dazed days and eternal empires

Sunday mornin's soggy cereal seriously slacks in structure. Supposed satisfaction suffices.Soft, sweet sounds sounding from sweeping sparrows sing me to simple sleep. I dream of dandy dandelions. Deli...
