Your Notes

Edit your notes

I am soft-spoken, playful, and conscientious.

My Self-Summary

I enjoy watching children laughing in the rose garden, or, that failing, in the local park.
Not much beats firing up the grill for eggplant, mushrooms, peppers, and onions on a summer's evening with friends and a Twins game in the background.
I like front porches and cold beer (in moderation.)
A painting by Botticelli is the only image gracing my bedroom wall. My garden runs riot.

What I’m doing with my life

As little as they'll let me get away with. I am relishing not wearing green and breathing burning trash. I'm working as a law clerk in rural Minnesota right now, but am in the St. Paul area most weekends and plan to return around the end of 2009.

I’m really good at

Land navigation. Day-dreaming. Baking cracked wheat bread and chocolate chip cookies. Wandering down city streets.
Things I am not necessarily good at, but enjoy:
bowling, singing, canoeing, hiking, ice-skating, pool, gardening, running, shuffleboard, poetry, baking other kinds of bread.

The first things people usually notice about me

my penchant for wool sweaters and flannel shirts.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

(a) Doctor Faustus (Mann & Goethe), Gilead, Venture of Islam, Systematic Theology (Tillich), Law's Empire (Dworkin), Auden and T.S. Eliot, most of the Old Testament prophets (especially Hosea & Isaiah), and just about the entirety of the early work of Hofmannsthal I also just started reading the Romantic poets seriously; I've really been enjoying them.

(b) Heaven, Andrei Rublev, Last Days of Sophie Scholl, The Decalogue, Office Space, Fanny & Alexander, Idiocracy & Ran.

(c) innocence mission, pixies, Mozart, Laura Veirs, Jeremy Messersmith, Bach are pretty good examples of music I enjoy. I have no real sophistication in music, but would like to acquire some.

(d) Ice cream (vanilla with strawberries), cookies & beer. One of my friends once told me I have the diet of a seven year old. Italian & cheap, greasy Mexican from just about any taco stand on East Seventh does the trick too.

The six things I could never do without

I've done without everything but food (and not much of that), sleep (less of that than food), water, air, a little clothing, and a weapon. Even in those circumstances, transcendance bleeds through around the edges and bursts forth from the center. It's awfully nice though to have pancakes, coffee shops, a furnace, a ping pong table, and a mattress, though.

I spend a lot of time thinking about

Political philosophy - providing a Christian ethic to undergird liberal morality - I find both Rawls and Calvin fairly persuasive. Possiblity of a goat in the backyard. The desirability of owning a Kosovo Harley. Future of St. Paul, the US, and the world. The books I read.

You should message me if

you'd like or caught the reference in the "username" I chose. Or if you think the Heights Theater is pretty damn cool and underappreciated. Honestly, you probably could do and have done worse.
