Once upon a time there was a girl who grew up with her very nice family in a part of Brooklyn, NY called Marine Park. She lived there for awhile, then went to college in Albany for four years, before running the hell back the first chance she got. She recently traded Park Slope for the superior stomping grounds of Ditmas Park.
She lives with her marvelous boyfriend in a lovely apartment and is generally pretty happy with her life. She rarely talks about herself in the third person, but has fun when she does.
She also prefers it when people ask before adding her. It's just polite.
haiku for my semagic client
oh little purple pen
how dark and dull my day is
until you flash red.
"When a true genius appears in the world, you may know him by this sign: that all the dunces are in confederacy against him." --Jonathan Swift, writer
"New York, that concert of the expensively provisional."
— Henry James
"Becoming a writer is not a 'career decision' like becoming a doctor or a policeman. You don't choose it so much as get chosen, and once you accept the fact that you're not fit for anything else, you have to be prepared to walk a long, hard road for the rest of your days." -Paul Auster
"I'm sick of following my dreams. I'm just going to ask them where they're going, and hook up with them later." --Mitch Hedberg.
"Observation"
If I don't drive around the park,
I'm pretty sure to make my mark.
If I'm in bed each night by ten,
I may get back my looks again.
If I abstain from fun and such,
I'll probably amount to much;
but I shall stay the way I am,
Because I do not give a damn.
