James. with a J.

I am here for Friends

About Me

i'm a simple gay jew living in kansas. my dream is to travel all over (starting with Israel, South Korea, Iceland, et al). i love to read, make coffee, and listen to music. umm.. i also want to move to california (sacramento area) within the next 4 years (i'd prefer sooner, but, i need to get my masters first).
okay, for those of you who don't know, I'm trying to finish up my degree in English Lit (with an emphasis on Holocaust/WWII lit)... but, it's all with the intent of getting my MLIS so i can work down in the bellows of a library. maybe. we'll see what branch/where i can get a job.
anyhow, i love dorothy parker. so here's a little ditty from her. :)
'Resume'
-Dorothy Parker
Razors pain you;
Rivers are damp;
Acids stain you;
And drugs cause cramp;
Guns aren't lawful;
Nooses give;
Gas smells awful;
You might as well live.
