About Me



First update since... well... when I joined in '04?

I love my cats.
I love music.
I don't have a "favorite" but think getting it live is best.
People watching is a GREAT job, but it never pays enough.
I read. Lots. Almost anything I can get my hands on.
I write. Not nearly enough. I'm working on changing that.
For some reason, I still tend to be far too shy around people I don't know.
I loved hanging out with my friends in Manhattan, but now I'm in PA and they're in L.A. I miss 'em like hell.

Since moving here to PA, I've become friends with some AMAZING, INCREDIBLE, FUN (and some loony) people.
I almost never act my age, and that tends to get me in trouble.
I REALLY enjoy absinthe.

My Interests

Music, Dancing, Darkness, Reading, Old Cemeteries, Northern Shaolin Chuan, Traveling, Absinthe, Hanging in The City, Chess, People Watching, Writing, My Cats

Idealist?

Thinking

I began to think at parties now and then -- to loosen up. Inevitably, though, one thought led to another, and soon I was more than just a social thinker.I began to think alone -- "to relax," I to...

Three days ago...

We did it to ourselves.  Our apathy until the last hour.  Our inability to vocalize, discuss and educate others.  Now is not the time to sit back and simply say "We failed."  Now ...
