Interests & Hobbies
Meaning of Life:
This is the best of all possible worlds.
Be good to each other.
Five Things I Can't Live Without:
Art. Books. Sensuality. Music. Conversation.
Favorite Books:
I am an avid reader so this is tough!
I equal parts fan of fic and non fic. So In Cold Blood is just as riveting to me as A clockwork Orange. I really enjoy books that take me somewhere or teach me something. Camus and Kafka are great, but I'm just as happy getting cozy on the couch with Where the Sidewalk Ends. In a weird way I think Ethan Fromme, Their Eyes were Watching God and the studying I've done on the Titanic has really been key in influencing who I am today.
What I Like To Do For Fun:
What don't I?
Favorite Songs:
Beatles. Classical. Billie Holiday. Julie London. 60's and 70's. Big Band and Swing. The Rat Pack. Ray. The Kinks. Oingo Boingo. Morrisey. David Bowie.
The Black Angels. 80's rock. Portugal. The Man.
This one's too hard, just stick around.. I play a lot of tunes!
Favorite Movies:
Horror movies all day. Oh, and old ones! Don't get me wrong, today's big hit's can knock me off my feet, but I really love the old romances and action pictures. I know it might sound strange but Scrooge, the one with Albert Finney, is actually my favorite movie.
Craziest Thing I've Ever Done:
Moved all around the states on a whim! I've spent a good deal of time on the road and met so many wonderful people, but I'm sure it gets annoying to friends driving through a state going.. oh I used to live there every hour or so. haha
If I Could Be Anywhere Right Now:
Oh that changes in a minute, but just now.. I'd like to be on a quite street in the south of France. It may sound cliche.. but hell, I'd be just as happy to bop on over to red robins for a burger with the right person.
Hobbies:
Stichwork, Painting, Random Mixed Media Art and Writing.
Talents:
Other than cookin..
Hospitality. I think it's a lost art.
I mean I play the piano and that's swell but I think it means a lot to be able to say that you mind your manners and treat your friends like family and your family like friends.
Perfect Mate:
Someone who is my total other half. That I can fight with and be myself with. That a netflix night in is just as amazing with as a night on the town. Humor, a touch of sarcasm, wit and a passion for the arts.
The other parts easy, like movies and music and books.. haha
Perfect Date:
Somethin he'd plan.. guessin on what I might like. I'm not hard to impress. I'd want it to be perfect for both of us.
Turn Ons/Offs:
Manners. I can't say that enough. Really, there aren't that many gentleman left, getting my attention isn't hard but it takes more than "hey bae"
Confidence. An outgoing spirit.
Biggest turn off.. just plain being a jerk. Ain't got the time in the day for it.
Best Reason to Get to Know Me:
I'm a well mannered handful.
