Interests

  • General

    Claire, Raising the brood, writing, playing guitar, reading, movies (mostly foreign and indie), listening to music, not talking, pretending I'm somewhere else, pretending I'm someone else, remembering who I really am.

    I used to contribute to this fine, fine blog: Nonalignment Pact

    These fine folks put up with my shenanigans: Foxy Digitalis

    I occasionally mirror my immensely fascinating MySpace blog here, but generally put the really dull personal stuff up there instead. Tread at your own risk, assface: This Won't hurt...

    Here's a link to my music page: The Powers of Light and Darkness

About me:

Thanks to the 80s oil boom and consequential great Southern exodus, I was planted here in this sweltering cesspool and lion's den, Houston, Texas (thanks Mom and Dad). Now I lumber away in a self imposed exile trying desperately to figure out how the fuck to get out alive. My parents, meanwhile, have long since divorced and gotten the fuck out of Texas. If pressed, I might admit to liking people, but generally speaking, only from a distance. I am, after all, a spectator at heart and not a participant. Clearly this inclination is not total or I wouldn't be here pimping myself for all to see. No this doesn't make me interesting, it makes me vague and ambiguous. Just like everyone else. Including you.

Who I'd like to meet:

Someone who can hold my interest with their intelligence and not just by being obnoxious or abusively loud. People I care about that I haven't seen or spoken with for a while. My Dad's dad (died before I was born), my maker.
