My Interests

I'd like to meet:

people who dance to Thriller, people living in DC, people who also dislike sleeping in beds and the penguins with yellow whiskers, and those that love to take long showers.

Music:

shai hulud, taake, against me, eric petersen, requiem when I'm making out, iron and wine, maroon, defiance ohio

Movies:

Books:
