into: Like everyone, I like books, movies, music and art. But aesthetically I tend to be drawn to the quirky and offbeat rather than the mainstream. If it is thoughtful, non-conformist, nihlistic, existential, vaguely creepy but still warmly human and funny, chances are better than good that I know and love it.
makes me happy: My kid. Music. Hanging out with friends. Smoke free clubs and bars. Going into a movie when the sun is still up and coming out after the sun has set. Purring cats. Coffee and conversation at 2am. Helping people. Seeing old friends. Making new friends.
makes me sad: Abandoned cats. Stupid people in positions of power. Poverty. Cruelty. Death.
5 things i can't live without: The usual stuff - air, water, food, shelter, love.
vices: "Vice, virtue. It's best not to be too moral. You cheat yourself out of too much life. Aim above morality. If you apply that to life, then you're bound to live life fully." - Maude
thoughts on sg: It's okay
i spend most of my free time: Most of my time is occupied with my family, friends and my daughter. The remainder of my "free" time is spent on music, writing, movies, books, tv and games.
occupation: I'm somebody's mommy. Best job ever.
current crush: It's still Louise Brooks. It's aways Louise Brooks.
stats: Boobalicious.
body mods: None whatsoever.
heroes: Paul Wellstone, Hugh Thompson Jr, George Bernard Shaw, Nina Simone, Louise Brooks, Spalding Gray, D.H. Lawrence, Kurt Vonnegut Jr, Noam Chomsky, Sir Thomas More, my mother
gets me hot: Intelligence balanced by a sense of humor and compassion. I like sincere, honest, nice people with wit and nous and passion.
favorite position: 2N. The hardest, but absolutely my best....
(debate position that is)
fantasy: Socialized health and dental care. America's health care system is completely fucked.
