drinking coffee (and decaf is NOT coffee), playing tennis, reading, visiting galleries (my favorites are usually pop or surrealism exhibits), watching skateboarders (i tried to do it a couple of times...it always ended badly, so now i am just content watching), painting, listening to music, watching water, going on long walks, talking to friends, watching foreign movies, world politics, indian food, environmental causes, playing cards (i especially love uno), drinking really bad mai tais, trying to outsmart my cat, and generally aggrivating my family.
I'd like to meet:
hmmm...well, i guess i'd like to meet "interesting" people. ("interesting" is a subjective word, so i'll elaborate a bit) people who like to hike, who can appreciate the simple things in life. Animal lovers and artists are always good. definitely someone who knows good coffee and great cafes. people who truly care about others, and are genuinely nice. people who are looking for sustainable practices, in theory and in practice. people who are disturbed by the state of the world, but want and actually attempt to evoke change. people who can amuse themselves for hours. people who find life a bit ironic, but still pretty hilarious. so to sum it up, people of all sorts. oh, except people who not only voted for W, but actually like the man. those are bad, bad people...
Oh and I insist that I meet people that have seen, and LIKE Rad and Attack the Gas Station (just to reassure myself that I am not making these movies up)

East of Eden (huge steinbeck fan), To Kill a Mockingbird, Great Expectations, Valley of the Dolls, Electric Kool-aid Acid Test, A Differnt Mirror, White Teeth, anything by Sedaris, Rushdie, Alice Walker, and Anna Maxted. books about the french revolution, american ethnic studies, california history, and funny bios are also not bad. basically i'm a bookworm, and will read almost anything once. although i use stephen hawkins to fall asleep.

my mom...amazing woman,
captain planet, even though he has a mullet...
atticus finch, margret sanger (who opened the first birth control clinic), and my awesome friends!
