About Me

I'm hot. And smart. And funny. I like to take pictures. I specialize in self portraits. I don't have any pets, though one day I'd like to have a dog. I have the tried-and-true cure for hiccups. I swear. I learned it from a bartender. And who knows more about hiccups than bartenders? And now me, of course.

My Interests

Old things with a new twist and fresh perspective. Good company. Laughter. Playing pool (poorly) in dive bars. Learning/doing new things and going to new places. Hiking, Kayaking, Swimming, Tennis. And Games! I love to play games! Scrabble, Trivial Pursuit, Backgammon.

I'd like to meet:

Sexy Bitches. And people that are serious about not taking themselves too seriously.

Music:

Anything not too loud, screechy and angry. Other than that, my tastes are all over the map. Right now I'm reliving the Stevie Wonder Years and listening to Spinto Band, The Raconteurs, Art Brut, Latryx and Regina Spektor.

Movies:

Am I the only person who actually liked Punch Drunk Love? Stranger Than Fiction. The Namesake.

Television:

Family Guy, American Idol, Top Chef, Entourage, Dexter, Grey's Anatomy, The Office, cooking shows on PBS.

Books:

I am really good at buying and starting books... right now I'm in the middle of A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, Eat Pray Love, and Dress Your Family in Corduroys.

Heroes:

We don't need another hero.

V-Day or New Year's Part 2

Valentine's Day sort of reminds me of New Year's in the sense that there's this pressure to have plans. And there's this division of "haves" and "have nots," not only with plans but also&nb...
