    Daphne's Interests
GeneralMy interests are multifarious and are displayed to some extent here. Why not ask me about them? But if you're shy, here are a few more: seashell fossils found on mountaintops, Japanese folklore, creepy carousels, lakeshores at night, thunderstorms, all insects everywhere and some arachnids, Jack Kirby for creating Scott Free and Big Barda, George Herriman for being magical, 19th century dictionaries for the word "fleshling", vintage Bollywood and its many moles, Japanese kobe charms from the twenties with their googly eyes, the odd dispute between J.M. Whistler and Oscar Wilde, anime/animation of all sorts, silent film, film noir, film-film-film, learning too many languages at once and trying to avoid the everpresent false cognate, the desert night sky, reading just about anything, haunting Canter's deli, Totoro and the marvelous soot sprites, book-binding and book arts, art-art-art, all music! (shall I type that three times for emphasis as well?), travel, photography, shoes that make me appear taller and bigger (like a poofy cat's tail), good coffee (sigh), finding a new apartment (trickier than it sounds). For some reason I've decided to collect old keys, especially for clocks. Perhaps I can learn to alter time.

MySpace has their ridiculous "who I'd like to meet" section...I'm pretty sure Arto is in my top ten.

The desert has a magical energy. ;)
