My Interests

Jesus Christ, making music, messing with photos, medicine, genetics, nutrition, surgery, and all things fun, including, but not limited to the verbs: running, biking, fishing, swimming, hiking, cooking, skate skiing, etc... i also enjoy people, crossword puzzles, pondering, meandering, nursing, learning, talking, living, and laughing. i'm frustratingly and often too cynically interested in politics, media reform, and human rights/social activism. for a look at some topics that i find "interesting" please check out a great new website called and...

I'd like to meet:

creative thinkers, leaders, laughers, listeners, athletes, rockstars, artists, poets, believers, storytellers, survivors, surgeons, and angels.

Music:

erin cole-baker, chris chabot, sufjan stevens, and mat kearney... i also like nickel creek, the dixie chicks, patti griffin, the weepies, laura gibson, tova rinah, horse feathers, the decemberists, regina spektor, and whatever else happens to sound nice.

Movies:

they can be pretty fun when you're really feeling bored and lazy. everyone should watch "invisible children." you can view it at google videos .. for free.

Television:

it's all about grey's anatomy- thank goodness it's only on once a week...

Books:

are the one thing i want to buy always. someday i want a library in my abode. bookshelves to the ceiling. right now reading- lots of anatomy and embryology texts, and mountains beyond mountains again- SO GOOD. other faves- anne lammott's books, atul gwande's books, paul farmer's books, and don miller's books.

Heroes:

My Parents. Kevin and Chrissi Wright. Carla Smith. Paul Farmer. Elizabeth Blackwell. Surgeons. Dick and Rick Hoyt.
