Sorry! an unexpected error has occurred.

About Me

I believe Myspace owns the trademark on my headline, since they use it so often and needless to say are very "sorry". I've always wondered, does " Profile views" include the times when I look at my own profile? Anyway, I seem to attract good people and surround myself with a spectacular cast of characters. Paul Rudd said it best in 200 Cigarettes, "You know I don't have ugly friends." Um...I'm from southern california and now I live in NYC. Earthquakes are scary, along with gas prices and traffic, plus I ran a red light while driving down Robertson Blvd. in "gag-me-with-a-spoon" Beverly Hills and now have a $500 ticket and a bench warrant out for my arrest so moving here seemed to fit!

My Interests

Watching good (and the worst) movies, friends, reading, puking on hipsters, spending enough time alone that I don't go crazy, sending long ass text messages, going to museums, eating, and walking around Manhattan like the old woman addicted to speed in the last scene of Requiem For A Dream when she thinks the fridge is gonna eat her so she runs out of her apartment in a housecoat while it's snowing and she's totally insane (that's me sometimes minus the speed and the whole fridge eating me thing).

Legends of The Fall

I am now in the "itchy-scab/prickly skin" phase of my face injury. This is the worst part. I have actually woken up, to my unconscious self, picking at my face like Britney Murphy pickin' at that chic...

it could be worse

Sometimes I am too smart for my own bad, which I guess is actually good. I have an ability to be spectacularly distrustful of people, this aids in fishing out the truth from a swamp of lies. I am susp...
