About me

Gender Female
Location United States
Introduction I enjoy words and art. Pictures painted with words are perfection, almost too beautiful to bear. When I can find time (and settle my mind), I draw, paint and make "stuff." I like to journal, tell stories, watch people, and laugh loud and hard.
Interests I enjoy movies, books, gardening, yoga, drawing, genealogy, and the Internet.
Favorite Movies Clerks, Home for the Holidays, Strictly Ballroom, Harold and Maude, Hair Spray, The Committments, Broadcast News, Kill Bill I & II, El Mariachi, A Christmas Story, anything by Pedro Almodovar (Jamon, Jamon, Kika, Tie Me Up, Tie Me Down) my list is limitless, because my goal as a child was to see every movie ever made. I worked hard at it, what can I say? Everyone should have a goal:)
Favorite Music Billie Holiday, Ruben Blades, Counting Crows, Ben Kweller, Chopin, Poe, Neil Finn/Crowded House/Split Enz, Molotov, The Clash, Ravell, Miguel Bose, Nina Simone, The Killers, Scissor Sisters, Collin Hay
