Shroud of Mystery

The award says it all. What can I say- It's always the quiet ones. The little bit I've seen has me curious to learn more. read more

I am bones of the, branches, the boughs, and brow beating light.

My Self-Summary

"well if I could tame
all of my desires,
wait out the weather
that howls in my brain-
because it seems
that it's always changing:
the wind's indecision,
the sorrowful rain.

What I’m doing with my life

I was a postcard,
I was a record;
I was a camera
until I went blind.
now I am riding
all over this island
looking for something
to open my eyes.

I’m really good at

but I'll sing glory, from my lowest
and I will say thanks
if you're pouring my drinks.
while the world
waits for an explosion:
that instant of light
that wipes the slate clean."

The first things people usually notice about me

I'm usually immediately accused of being quiet.

ALSO I just asked someone, and they said "quiet and sardonic." I looked up the exact definition, and either they mean I am "bitingly mocking" OR "alluding to a Sardinian plant which when eaten was supposed to produce convulsive laughter ending in death." HOPEFULLY the second one.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

Tori Amos, Andrew Bird, the Beatles, the Be Good Tanyas, Bjork, Bright Eyes, CakeBake Betty, Cocorosie, Decemberists, Devendra Banhart, the Ditty Bops, Fiona Apple, Fleet Foxes, Gogol Bordello, Grateful Dead, Iron and Wine, Joanna Newsom, Kate Bush, the Kinks, Led Zeppelin, Mirah, Modest Mouse, Nick Drake, Of Montreal, Pink Floyd, Radiohead, Rasputina, Regina Spektor, Sean Hayes, the Shins, Squirrel Nut Zippers, Sunny Day Real Estate. I am always looking for new music suggestions.

(*I have a *blip* ! http://blip.fm/zimzala You can see what I'm listening to! Wowwww.)

Movies: Labyrinth, Neverending Story, Adventures of Baron Munchausen, (80s fantasy in general, so I don't have to list every one), Hedwig and the Angry Inch, The Village, Run Lola Run, anything Tim Burton, LOTR, The Secretary, Yellow Submarine, Pippi on the Run. I can't watch horror movies.

Books: I'll read anything people leave lying around. Herman Hesse, Tom Robbins, Kurt Vonnegut, Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell, Cloud Atlas. Abarat, The Book by Alan Watts. Children's books with surreal and colorful illustrations. Recommend things to me!

The six things I could never do without

* sunlight
* music
* meaningful human connections
* art/ inspiring things/ distractions from despair
* the internet, apparently, judging from my reaction when it breaks down
* affection.

I spend a lot of time thinking about

how I wish people knew what I was thinking.

On a typical Friday night I am

lamenting having to wake up at 7:30 the next morning.

You should message me if

I'm feeling a bit shut down, so I apologize for not currently responding to emails.
