People are the most interesting things to me. Every time I've tried to write fiction I've failed miserably and painfully. But talk with me and I'll learn your story and tell it back to you twofold.

Transport makes me happy. I like to move. Taking the ferry to the train to the airport to the island I've never been where I rent a bike and get lost is my idea of a perfect day.

Two wheels good, four wheels bad. No wheels best of all.

Trying different things and smoking funny things, sipping whiskey out of the bottle and singing 'Sweet Home Alabama' all summer long.

Speaking useless language(s)

When I wear a blazer, t-shirt and jeans, I exude the perfect mix of competence and approachability that attracts directions-seeking tourists. It's a good thing that I'm really good at giving directions.

"Wow, that man in the blazer, t-shirt and jeans exudes the perfect mix of competence and approachability. I think I'll ask him how to find the Q train/Franklin St./Stagedoor diner/Central Park"

If you enjoy The Hedgehog in the Fog, we'll get along.

the different dialects of American English and why half the phone conversations in NYC include the phrase, "Listen, Ma, I toldjya," or "I totally don't sound like that, do I?"

Globalizing cities while developing neighborhoods with a sense of place.

Whether or not I want to have roots.

Using the IRT as my IRL OKC.

I hate "meeting for drinks." I've secretly never been able to figure out what to do in a bar. I'd much rather go out and and do something interesting. If we have to meet "for" something, let's make it frozen yogurt. I've always been able to figure out frozen yogurt.

You watched Hedgehog in the Fog.

You get pumped up by shit from the thrift shop

You want a motorcycle ride but have never gotten the chance.
