Interests

  • General

    Love of family and friendships. Getting lost (I'm the GPS poster child). Hiking with my intrepid puppy. What is above my head at any moment. Apache Tears (thank you for showing them to me, V!). Lengthening my body in yoga class at Wellsprings. Bowing my head in respect, with hands folded. General mayhem but avoiding prison, images, poetry and fiction and even fiction and poetry, dancing under stars, energy and environmental conservation, running, biking, swimming, natural homebuilding, fellow mudders, inward flight, humour and funny people. How humanity can solve many of its problems so easily. Cultural and biological diversity. The middle of nowhere.   
  • Music

    Ever changing.. The sounds of rain, laughter, wind, and thunder. And breath. The silences in between notes. Wind through grass. The voices of whales.
    You Are From Neptune
    You are dreamy and mystical, with a natural psychic ability.
    You love music, poetry, dance, and (most of all) the open sea.
    Your soul is filled with possibilities, and your heart overflows with compassion.
    You can be in a room full of friendly people and feel all alone.
    If you don't get carried away with one idea, your spiritual nature will see you through anything.
  • Movies

    Indie, foreign films, documentaries, classics...good stories. One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Seven Samurai, Harold & Maude, Rashomon, Amelie, Delicatessen, On the Waterfront, Raging Bull, Color Purple, The Passenger, most of the films by Zhang Yi Mou, Inconvenient Truth, 3-Iron, Streetcar Named Desire, Walkabout, Once, The Lookout, No Country for Old Men ..
  • Television


    No. My brain doesn't like TV shows.
  • Books

    Gawd I love reading!! Mostly fiction, po'tree, history. John Dos Passos, J.D. Salinger, Sylvia Plath, Lisa Gill, Cormac McCarthy, Hemingway, Gabriella Mistral, ee cummings, Maxine Hong Kingston, John Kennedy Toole, Kafka, Gibrand, Graves, Kesey, Arundhati Roy, Tolkien, Kerouac, Carson, T.S. Eliot, Styron, Tolstoy, Oliver Sachs (Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat), T.E. Lawrence, Melville, Vonnegut, Fitzgerald, Mowatt, Hoff, Vikhram Seth, Kundera, Thomas Pynchon, Ursula LeGuin, Mehta, Hesse, Bucky Fuller, David Malouf, Shirley Hazzard. ..
  • Heroes

    My soulful mom who always told me to take my vitamins and taught me to wander, my everinpsirational grandmother, my lil brother Andrew who defied death, and my dearest friends Lovewave and Ira. Einstein, Kermit, Rachel Carson, MLK, Ghandi, and Bucky Fuller are pretty OK, too. Ya think?

About me:

I am learning I have the aptitude of Rain and this may be the only thing I am good at. So, I had better keep being this way :). One of my great joys is waking up at 3 in the morning and listening to the wind. I am an optimist, finding joy in this goddam phenomenal world. The world can be falling part around me and I'll still smile. I'm right-brained in a left brained world but I do like math...these days I like eating healthfully and writing in small books that fit in my coat pocket. I read way into the night, probably too much for my own good. I am an explorer and have a sweet soul.

I love it here in New Mexico, truly enjoy my oft challenging work, and I've an addiction to skies. I drive a little white high gas mileage car and I want to go skydiving. The Road Goes Ever On (3rd stanza)

The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say.

-- J R R Tolkien

You have an innate caring nature - and nothing can change that!
You Are 15% Left Brained, 85% Right Brained
The left side of your brain controls verbal ability, attention to detail, and reasoning.
Left brained people are good at communication and persuading others.
If you're left brained, you are likely good at math and logic.
Your left brain prefers dogs, reading, and quiet.

The right side of your brain is all about creativity and flexibility.
Daring and intuitive, right brained people see the world in their unique way.
If you're right brained, you likely have a talent for creative writing and art.
Your right brain prefers day dreaming, philosophy, and sports.

Nice people. I like people who live within and love rich, layered stories. I care about character, not credentials and pedigree.

    Got the package!  Big thanks!  And also, I love Yeats, so that should keep me entertained for a while.  And I should be able to quote more Yeats poems by the time I get back.  That Clark book sounds like V might have been based off of it, or is that just a wild assumption?
