I am here cause I wanna be like Heather

About Me

No really, I wouldn't be on MySpace if it weren't for Heather.

My Interests

taking pictures, making pretty things, writing stuff, graphic novels, old movies, futurephones, toy cameras, leisurely lives, shoes, travel, computers, online communities, shiny things and Heather.

I'd like to meet:

Dave Navarro, Andy Warhol, Jay Spaceman, Elizabeth Taylor circa the hot years, pre-war Elvis, and I've already met her, but I'd really really like to see Heather sometime soon again.

Music:

i'm tragically unhip. i love nick cave, and random old crappy bands, like the sisters of mercy. no, i don't take them seriously, but i still love them. the pet shop boys, yeah- them too, primal scream, the beastie boys, spiritualized, falco, edith piaff... yeah, you see? so! not! a trendsetter! now get off of my lawn, you hoodlem!

Movies:

Old films from the 30s, 40s and 50s... Anything with Bette Davis, Myrna Loy, Cary Grant, Katherine Hepburn, Lauren Bacall, and William Powell.

Television:

Turner Classic Movies, crappy reality tv, csi vegas, etc. etc.

Books:

I don't read nearly enough, but I love me some Umberto Eco.

Heroes:

that was a song by david bowie, right?
