About Me

well... i attended juilliard. i'm a graduate of the harvard business school. i travel quite extensively. i lived through the black plague and had a pretty good time during that. i've seen 'the exorcist' about a hundred and sixty-seven times, and it keeps getting funnier every single time i see it.

My Interests

my dog dash, music, lazy days, iceland, hockey, mexico, volcanoes, apocalypses, going to shows, missing my friends, not driving, dark bars with good jukeboxes, being vegan, getting my drink on and dancing to 80's music, red poppies, ravens, sparkly stuff, vanilla, never ever growing up, vodka, traveling more than i can afford but not nearly as much as i want to, and hanging out with my fineass boyfriend.
