About me: i draw, i make songs, i walk around san francisco looking for the streets with the best trees. i like campari a lot, but i've been drinking whiskey because it seems like the right choice for our "hard times."
Who I'd like to meet: nice people in san francisco that do neat things they care about and want to watch movies with me. are you out there?
about that star trek thing... i recently experienced the same conflicted feelings after sitting through the first two seasons again. what is happening to us???
