Parthenogenesis

About Me

I like to peel things. I order iced non-fat vanilla lattes even though I don't like them. I like my husband's beard. 65 degrees is perfect weather to me. Hand sanitizer is genius.

My Interests

I consume so much aspartame that I'm going color blind.

I'd like to meet:

Leonard Cohen, Crispin Glover, your mom.

Music:

Johnny Cash, Neil Young, Elliott Smith, Rufus Wainwright, Leonard Cohen, Blonde Redhead, Tom Waits, Wilco, Peggy Lee, Robert Johnson, Little Stevie Wonder and others.

Movies:

Doctor Zhivago is beyond beautiful. That David Lean knows what he's doing.

Television:

Hmm all sorts of HBO shows and I also like old crime tv shows including weird Agatha Christy british things even if I don't know what they're saying all of the time.

Books:

I'm reading Contrabando about John Henry Ford Jr smuggling drugs across the border in the 80s. Texas, you so crazy. Other than that, anything by Faulkner, Salinger, Hemingway, Gina Berriault, Raymond Carver or Vonnegut will keep me busy for a few days.

Heroes:

Seymour Hersh.
