I am idealistic, passionate, and patient.

My Self-Summary

I'm into art, politics, food, wine, poetry, hiking, regional cultures, aesthetics, zeitgeists, and other good/fascinating/beautiful/pleasurable things in life.

What I’m doing with my life

I graduated from college in '08 as an English major. Now I'm writing...while working as a concierge in order to support myself.

I’m really good at

Understanding art. Having a conversation with someone. Writing.

The first things people usually notice about me

Maybe my eyes, which are pretty dark.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

I love classical music, authentic folk music, poetry by Dickinson, Tolstoy's The Cossacks, The Onion, Kubrick's Barry Lyndon, talkingpointsmemo.com, Morning Joe on MSNBC, Harry Shearer's Le Show, NPR's It's All Politics podcast, The New York Times, The Washington Post, slate.com, Slate's Political Gabfest, Dear Prudence, The Daily Show, Bill Maher, Indian cuisine, French cuisine, German cuisine, Greek cuisine, Italian cuisine, Eastern European cuisine, white wine from Burgundy, a vodka martini, a negroni, eau de vie, a double espresso with steamed whole milk on the side!

The six things I could never do without

Family
Friends
Romance
Art
Wine
Nature

I spend a lot of time thinking about

What I'm writing. The artists that I'm into. Culture. Politics. People I know. People I want.

On a typical Friday night I am

Maybe going to a bar with friends, or maybe just laying low with friends and talking about the world.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

One of my favorite hobbies, when I can afford it, is taking myself out to dinner alone with a stack of newspapers and magazines. I've been doing that since I was in middle school.
