About Me

if you put your feet in the ocean, then it knows you. it's harder to get the sky to know you, because you never can be sure when you're touching it... but when you do, you know, because the sky can sing sweeter than most things. but not as sweet as the ocean: who knows most but doesn't chose any. i guess that doesn't tell you anything aout me. but the ocean knows me. go ask the ocean.

My Interests

most earthly things. a movie I saw the other day that I can't remember the name of but was entirely images and music. it was grounding. i'm not very interested in this whole myspace thing but I am very board, if you cared to know. i like painting people.onthem.not painting them. painting swirls on their stomachs and stars on their shoulders. i like the steam on windows in the winter after you take a shower. and those moment when you see the world like your eyes were a camera and everything stops for a second. i'm not very interested in spelling. it's pointless if you can convey the same ideas without resorting to a dictonary. i like heated floors. andyes. i'm usually this pretentious.
