About Me

Layout made by radio_radi0 at CreateBlog.com . seems like just yesterday i was watching the moving truck with all of my belongings move away from my brooklyn apartment. shit, i'm doing it again. moving to another city with only $100 in my pocket and not even a handful of people on the other end who i could call close friends. but once again its been amazing. san francisco is just the greatest and i can honestly say i can see myself here for quite a while. i have started a business, finally, after years of pondering what to do and making and also selling my jewelry. yea! things are good, the sky is sunny again, people are smiling and i made it through the winter with only seeing snow twice. I also started a craft and design blog called pretty crafty thing. A store with some of my favorite indie pieces will be attached to the blog soon. Check it out! img src="http://a441.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/52/l_7ac0 7ca6958a724a9775b92460062bd8.jpg" alt="" /

My Interests

so so many. my loves: the beach, making jewelry, bicycling, long chiily nights in tents, lazy summer days in the park, coffee shops, music, art, art, art, especially photography and film, going to movies by myself in the middle of the day, a nice glass of sancere, yummy gooey triple cream cow cheese, reading (good books), hiking, chocolate cupcakes with vanilla icing, godard,anna karina, bardot, jane birkin, my cat sailor, all animals except opossums and pigeons (except for the one on 2nd st with a missing foot), etc...... oh and i forgot - cowboys, i really have a thing for aging cowboys,img src="http://www.volkovitch.com/Anna_2.jpg" alt="" /

I'd like to meet:
