As a kid I became convinced that I can fly, and I check into this often. I climb on things like the deck in my yard and I lift my arms and jump, waiting for a current to sweep my into the air. For this reason, I have to be luminous, otherwise I might get lost in the sky.

[Sorry this is incomplete; I'm editing my profile and the areas below.]

Asking questions (and caring less over time about answers). Playing with my stuff. Looking. Seeking stability over demons and kindness over power. Searching.

Saving nearly dead plants, laminating, finding grammatical errors, walking uphill, making people laugh, flying off my deck.

My eyes, my smile, my laughter, and, depending on what I'm wearing, my legs.

I read lots of non-fiction books for my work (and my own pleasure) in the areas of media and (popular) culture.

the unusual, nature, touch, beauty, all of the emotions, hope (and honesty).

All kinds of things: Where that road goes. Why that woman is driving so fast with her son in the back seat. Men. How to understand what many would think of as 'bad' behavior by imagining the circumstances (usually childhood) that would come together to produce that behavior..

exactly who I am on Tuesday morning.

I have a piece of a young male athlete's ribcage in my nose.

you're (also) looking for full moon howling, endless laughter, and ecstasy.
