things i like:

whistling, howling, making things.
contraindications, movie marathons, clean sheets, boob scotch, escape plans, beats and brights, npr, breakfast for dinner, travel, dia de los muertos, white cotton panties, rearranging the furniture, displays, containers, packaging, lettering, gadgets, scissors, hair, tattoos, pirates, mad scientists, weird beards, lost worlds, honest peeps, fighting the good fight, playing for keeps, being a homebody, finding the balance...

it's now been a year in nyc. moved here from texas last October at the onset of the economic tomfoolery. rather than battle the other starving graphic designers I opted to try something new, and I'm now halfway through cosmetology school and hope to be chopping hair and being a general badass once again very soon.

playing for keeps. appreciating life. shooting the moon. sarcasm. people watching. arm-wrestling. getting lost. spontaniety.

southern charm

I used to own a bookstore. And read all the time. Now, not so much. I've been swept-up in the ny minute, buried beneath a heap of hair this year. When I have a spare moment, I read mags (dwell, interview, surface and lots of Japanese ones that I can't understand for ispiration) to just stay human. I love biographies, historical quests and buried treasures, Russian lit, and the many incarnations of the great American novel.

I watch a ton of movies. titles I can watch over and over again include: an american werewolf in london, the outsiders, black cat white cat, in america, in the name of the father, haunted honeymoon, big trouble in little china, edward scissorhands, city of lost children, the princess bride, raising arizona, finding nemo, monsters inc., wild at heart, fiddler on the roof... I like documentaries, surrealist cinema, cartoons, and pretty much anything not starring dane cook

food: mexican, italian and sweets

laughter, showers, sex, music, jeans and tees

Hair. The origins and absurdity of vanity. The immortals. The bungled and the botched. How we miss the beauty in the imperfect. Act 2.

Rearranging hair

I like football. There I said it. (go broncos!)

you wanna wrassle (or just grab a beer)
