I am rambunctious, juicy, and sweet.

My Self-Summary

if you pull up to a stoplight next to a brunette in purple sunglasses who's blasting 90s hip hop, then neil diamond and has a crazy-looking dog in the passenger seat, she's probably me.

i was born way up in the mountains but was more than likely a bay area girl from conception. my politics are left of center, i can really pick out some amazing produce, and i know how to enjoy the hell out of good food/music/art and mediocre sports teams.

every day i try to get in a little of the following:
music
basketball
storytelling
my pretty girlfriends, with whom i am very close
gender politics (someone's gotta take care of the pretty girls)
libations

What I’m doing with my life

i'm not really committed to any long term plan beyond writing (journalist) and wandering (love to travel). an ultimate fantasy realized would be finding someone to wander with and spend the rest of my life teasing, cracking jokes, taking stupid pictures, sharing food, fighting over the remote and changing directions for no reason, rather than settling down and phoning it in for life.

that said, i spend a lot of time on my work. i'm pretty emotionally invested in my career (this came as a surprise to me), and am inspired to the nth degree by good reporting, smart writers, and creative media outlets. i can dork the fuck out with the best of them and find talent and ambition irresistible.

I’m really good at

luxuriating, bullshitting, asking the right questions, writing emails, passing (light-hearted!) judgment on strangers, putting nervous types at ease, making alcoholic punches, holding a tune and banging some shit out on the piano.

a long time ago i also resigned myself to my quick temper, which i am really good at losing. i call this "being fiery." let me know if you have any negative personality aspects you'd like me to re-brand for you.

The first things people usually notice about me

long legs. big hair. the fact that i am always laughing.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

i'm an insatiable consumer of all of these things. i'll go brief, though:

atonement, laments for the living, the sun also rises. feminists and misogynists are pretty much both my bag, apparently.

reservoir dogs, a fish called wanda, ferris bueller's day off, annie hall, purple rain, rear window, oklahoma!, rushmore

i can talk for hours about neko case, neil young, jay-z, built to spill, and buddy holly. i can listen to almost everything else, too. i love hip hop and country, indie pop, folk, chamber music, motown and brill building, soul, disco, new wave, post-punk, shoegaze, and lady gaga. and prince. it's all there. and i'd love to mix it all up on a cd and give it to you.

southeast asian food, deep dish pizza, cherries, anything off the grill. i'm a good cook and was never in a "food is love" family even though i wanted to be, so i am always really stoked to make dinner for the loved ones.

The six things I could never do without

"never" is a strong word, but i'm alright with strong words.

a dog to assign human emotions to
a punchline to laugh at
street food (taco truck aficionado)
bevmo
time alone in my bathtub
the big spender cable package (i really love tv.)

I spend a lot of time thinking about

basketball (the NBA, specifically), the internet (occupational hazard), the ongoing mixtape playing in my head, strangers' childhoods and secret plans.

i commute, so i also spend a lot of time thinking critically about shit like "if i were a david bowie song, which one would i be?" (answer: suffragette city)

On a typical Friday night I am

i'd like to say "resisting the typical" but really it's pretty standard stuff. vodka, friends. beer, my patio. red wine, my bathtub. letting the dog get on the couch, against my better judgment.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

i love to wrestle and will laugh until i shriek if someone tickles me. corny, right? i know. i'm embarrassed right now.

You should message me if

you're looking for a partner in crimes against the status quo. to quote atmosphere, enough of the blind man's bluff - i want the good stuff.
