About Me

i am finally brave enough and certain enough to admit that i HATE david bowie. i just do. i can't stand him. i am the only person i've ever met--insofar as one can meet oneself--who holds this opinion.

My Interests

freezer-related mischief, clairvoyance, zooming, writing in bed, playing guitar poorly, eyeliner, seduction-by-proxy, schadenfreude, doing cartwheels

I'd like to meet:

someone who can help me figure out why i hate david bowie so much. i can't really explain it and i'd like to understand so i can better argue my position.

Music:



also, bands with "head" in their names. radio, portis, blonde red. anything bassy and dark and funny and sad, or earnest and like a baby. new wave. morphine. nirvana. the zombies. girl groups. dvorak. i am in a band called tinysinging . you can find all tinysinging songs on mewing.net

Movies:

happiness, welcome to the dollhouse, ghost world, interview with the vampire, the opposite of sex, american psycho, batman, batman returns, the royal tenenbaums, eyes wide shut, requiem for a dream, being john malkovich, donnie darko, human nature, romy and michele's highschool reunion, mulholland drive, pecker, orgasmo, the virgin suicides, lost in translation, brick, hard candy, eraserhead, juno, little children.

in general, i don't like movies much.

Television:

six feet under, carnivale, buffy, twin peaks, jeopardy, lost. that's IT.

Books:

margaret atwood, milan kundera, kurt vonnegut, douglas coupland, vladmir nabokov, salman rushdie, jd salinger, ee cummings, franz kafka, flannery o'connor, saul bellow, sylvia plath, anne carson, leo tolstoy, joyce carol oates, miranda july, joan didion, haruki murakami.
