About Me

View my blog at http://www.jookyg.com/ .
i'm a shy, goofy, iconoclastic, scruffy nerd with a few kinks, a bizarre sense of humor, a good head on my shoulders and an amazing and talented boyfriend. i like to stay physically and mentally fit, i'm reasonably smart, pretty much a loner when my friends let me get away with it, slightly pervy, moderately weird, and terribly wicked when i want to be.
i'm very much an unconventional aquarian with my moon in virgo, swimming upstream in a conventional world...it can be difficult and lonely sometimes.

i appreciate both the sacred and the profane, both ends of the same stick.
i like to solve world problems over a bottle of wine.
i don't judge books by their covers, candy bars by their wrappers or people by their clothes or music.
i despise intolerance, ignorance, closed-mindedness, judgmental people, meanies and hoarders of knowledge.
i love the act of creation in all its forms, and get almost as excited by random acts of destruction, both natural and manmade.
i'm spiritual in my own way and believe only what my personal experience on this earth has taught me, not what others want me to believe. no one has the right to tell others what to believe, how to practice those beliefs or whether they're correct.
my favorite places to travel are paris and disneyland. and mexico. and italy. and greece. and amsterdam. pretty much anywhere i go is my favorite place. especially amsterdam and disneyland...for similar but contrasting reasons.
i'm a huge disney nerd, have a disneyland season pass even though i live in the northwest, and am the videocast host for a fan-based disney podcast ( windowtothemagic.com ).
i don't blog here. visit jookyg.com for that nonsense.

My Interests

computers, videography, disneyland, podcasting, lounging, cooking, wine, travel, tea, literary arts, mystery, romance, fitness, hiking, camping, chaos, corrupting the innocent...not necessarily in that order

I'd like to meet:

i'd love to meet a fellow alien from my planet, someone as odd and unconventional as i am. anyone out there??? i'm watching the skis.

Music:

don't judge me by my music, but lately i've been liking Death Cab, Postal Service, Hellogoodbye, Dntel, various swing and jazz, Fleetwood Mac, Imogen Heap, Gorillaz, Scissor Sisters, Ultraviolet, the Creatures, the Faint, Gnarls Barkley, Skeewiff... it's a mixed bag. is it obvious i haven't found any new music in a while???

Movies:

all the Pixars, most of the Terry Gilliams, many of the Disneys, all the Jean-Pierre Jeunets so far, French cinema in general, animation but not necessarily anime, some big blockbusters, no romantic comedies, and the occasional documentary. film is my escapism, so i tend to like to see things on the big screen that are impossible or improbable in real life (like Transformers, f**k yeah!), not realistic dramas showing everyday people...blech.

Television:

television sucks. cable is a zillion channels of crap, that's why i got rid of it. how come all the really good shows get canceled, like Carnivale, Farscape, Invader Zim or Futurama? and you have to wait a year to see Doctor Who on american television. i guess that's what bittorrent was invented for. well anything worth watching will be on dvd eventually anyway.

want to try something funny? call comcast and tell them you want to cancel your service. they won't get it. "you what...? you don't want cable? are you sure? the northwest gets dark and rainy during the winter you know, what are you going to do then?"

Books:

recently The Zombie Survival Guide, World War Z, Towing Jehovah, So This Is How the World Ends, His Dark Materials Trilogy

Heroes:

just about anyone who's ever been classified as a rebel or iconoclast.
