About Me

i am addicted to coffee. and books. my boy and my friends are better than yours. (it's true). i love god, i would be nothing without my faith. i believe those who cannot weep with their whole hearts cannot laugh with them either (golda meir said that).

i harbor dreams of being a folk singer. or a ballerina. i listen to NPR almost constantly, and poetry makes me cry.
i am obsessed with the story "Into the Wild."
i, too, think good gets better. i am comma happy.
all i wanna be is the minute that you hold me in.
