About Me

One of my grandfathers had his kneecaps broken when he wouldn't tell them where the money was (it was under the floor). Then he moved to the Philippines with his mistress, the one my mom was named after. I only met him once, and he gave me an Inspector Gadget comic. That was the same trip to England when the firefighters had to cut me out of a swing.%D%A%D%A

The state of the world really upsets me a lot. I think people are inherently well-intentioned. The best way to cope with the world is by finding it funny!%D%A%D%A

My Interests

CBC Radio 1, media, waterslides, kitties, string theory, international beers, food combinations, the Greyhound, black babies, things that are beautiful; also, semicolons, exclamation marks! And sentence fragments.

I'd like to meet:

Number one boyfriend!%D%A%D%A
I'm very bad at relationships. Like so:%D%A

Music:

God, I love trumpet so much! I realized recently that by adding trumpet to a song, it automatically becomes a thousand times more excellent (except ska, big exception). I think it has replaced my long-time obsession with mandolin, beginning circa 1996. Also, I really don't like hardcore.

Movies:

Michel Gondry!

Television:

The Mighty Boosh, Prime Suspect, Nova.

Books:

Roald Dahl! Carl Sagan, Bill Bryson, John Irving.

Heroes:

Rex Walker's legs, people who are nice to each other just because.

I was bored tonight and Luke forced me to join this site. He told me he'd slit my throat if I didn't sign up. He kind of scares me, you know. I'm glad I have a COMPLETELY PRIVATE journal (*touche...
