"His heart danced upon her movements like a cork upon a tide. He heard what her eyes said to him from beneath their cowl and knew that in some dim past, whether in life or reverie, he had heard their tale before."
―James Joyce (Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man)

"The breeze is cool and the sky blue. I love this life with abandon and wish to speak of it boldly: it makes me proud of my human condition. Yet people have often told me: there’s nothing to be proud of. Yes, there is: this sun, this sea, my heart leaping with youth, the salt taste of my body and this vast landscape in which tenderness and glory merge in blue and yellow."
―Albert Camus

I wonder what would have happened if Esther Greenwood and Holden Caulfield had met some cold night in New York City. Would they have been able to share a slightly better life together than they had alone?

Movies: Very easily entertained. Lately I've been into old Hitchcock films, new superhero flicks, and whatever crap they have on the airplane.

Shows: Went to see "We Will Rock You", the Queen musical, in London a month or so ago. It was great. I really want to see "Book of Mormon". Saw Cat Power, Tame Impala, and Animal Collective over the last few months. And you can't beat The Freeze.

Music: Listening a lot lately to Cat Power, Bob Dylan, Jack White, Regina Spektor, Mike Doughty, and Queen. Huge and diverse music collection.

Food: Italian, Indian, and Thai lately. I've developed quite a taste for smart Italian cocktails. I love to cook and prefer eating in to going out.

Usually something chill with friends, or a night in after a long week.

Freddie Mercury is my spirit animal.

You're a genuine, caring person who vibes with what you're reading here. You're fit, mentally and physically. You're emotionally self-aware (which does not mean unemotional). You like to be upside-down. You're a little geeky. You don't mind getting funky. You know how to make commitments that you can keep.

You might notice that I'm pretty tall, but experience has shown that interesting logistics are possible between the tall and the short. And I don't mean just sexually.

You have the capacity for tenderness.

You're not a romantic tourist, collecting as many pleasant and fulfilling experiences as possible, and, balking at the first sign of depth in a relationship, moving on to the next paramour in your inbox.
