Things I enjoy: Driving aimlessly in my car listening to music, pulling the pieces out of my head and placing them on paper, going out for Sushi and having wasabi eating contests, the moon, floating in water, lovely smellables, drunken scrabble, delicious food, absorbing a good book, smelling books, watching a friend enjoy something I have shared with them and vice versa, spiders, brain picking, film noir, comics, day trips, cemetaries, being spooked, rollercoasters, being wrapped like a bug in soft blankets, sleeping in, warm summer nights, checking out live shows, Saturdays... and getting past the small talk.
I'd like to meet:
My sister and my mother again.
