Books
I'll read anything you put in front of me...including the back of that toothpaste you have on your bathroom counter. Any and all "Classics",Raise High The Roofbeam Carpenters and Seymour: An Introduction, Memoirs of a Geisha, A Happy Death, Cannery Row, your old college textbooks, everything by Augusten Burroughs and David Sedaris, The Complete Works of Ralph Waldo Emerson. (I'm about to reveal the true extent of my dorkiness...)One of my favorite things to do is break out my very large, musty copy of Familiar Quotations circa 1968, read it quote by quote, and write down quotes that inspire me in the corresponding journal that I keep right next to it...
Heroes
Anyone who isn't afraid to think and feel their way through life.
About me: (insert optimistic description of self here)...Honestly, I'm not quite sure what to say. I am a Super-Nanny to 3 great kids, and I love my job. I play WoW. One of my goals in life is to have a Doberman named Salinger and a fat cat named Kafka. (yes, Virginia-I am a dork.) I believe that any decision can be made by choosing the path of fear or the path of love. I will always choose love. Even when it hurts. I've mellowed considerably in my old age. I pretty much go where life takes me...which means I often have "learning experiences"... and I wouldn't have it any other way!
My life is but a seeking after life; I live but in a great desire to live; The undercurrent of my every thought- To seek you, find you, have you for my own Who are my purpose and my destiny. For me, the things that are do not exist; The things that are for me are yet to be...
In perfect understanding I shall come. And lay my hand in yours, and at your feet Sit silent, with my head against your knee. -Edna St. Vincent Millay
I'm a big fan of words...when used intelligently, they turn me on like nothing else can.
"Occasionally I feel an unhappiness which almost dismembers me, and at the same time am convinced of its necessity and of the existence of a goal to which one makes one's way by undergoing every kind of unhappiness" -Kafka
"Friends and lovers are quick to wound. Quicker than strangers even; the heart that opens itself to the world opens itself to sorrow." -Robert Nathan
"Poetry should be great and unobtrusive, a thing which enters into one's soul, and does not startle or amaze with itself, but with its subject." -Keats
"We are spinning our own fates, good or evil, and never to be undone. Every smallest stroke of virtue or of vice leaves its never so little scar...Nothing we ever do is, in strict scientific literalness, wiped out."-William James
"I am certain of nothing but the holiness of the Heart's affections and the truth of Imagination- What the imagination seizes as beauty must be truth- whether it existed before or not- for I have the same Idea of all our Passions as of Love they are all in their sublime, creative of essential Beauty" -Keats (again)

i must admit. i didnt take that tattoo very well. i didnt cry tho. thank gawd. but i did have him wait a few days to do the coloring. so ill have all the coloring done soon. but people are right about the ribs being one of the worse placeses to be inked.
I'm doing quite well! I'm the chef at a cool cafe in a little artist district here in Tallahassee. We were just had a feature article here so my ugly mug was in the paper. Other than that I'm starting to get a band together they've got me writing the songs and singing lead so we'll see how that works out! But life is pretty good for me. Glad to hear you are well
