CURRENT MISSION

I hope to one day run the Earth's most-famous Mouse Circus.

ABOUT ME

I'm a non-smoking animal-lover who can cook well, doesn't snore, and is reasonably neat. Does that cover all the bases? I enjoy a nice sea breeze from time to time... I love to travel, and have a handful or so of stamps in my passport. I ask more questions than I answer. I like the movies, art museums, and the sun.

PHILOSOPHY

Perfection is brief.

I'm also convinced that the meaning of life is in a milkshake, somewhere.

音乐、电影和书籍

Yes, please.

Sometimes I listen to covers of music from the 80's and 90's. Other than that, Incubus, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Bjork, Beirut, Amanda Palmer, Minus the Bear, Mutemath.

I get very picky about books. Ursula K. Le Guin will always have my heart. I liked The Crucible, A Clockwork Orange, 1984, Brave New World, The Prophet, Anansi Boys, Rule 34, Perfume, and hold a special place for graphic novels.

As for my favorite movies: Amelie, The Fifth Element, Trainspotting, Big Fish, Monty Python's Meaning of Life, So I Married An Axe Murderer.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

-Staring out into the foggy depths in the Mediterranean searching for a cure for my insomnia, then seeing a pod of dolphins surface nearby.
-Seeing the look of relief on a friend's face when they come out to you and they realize that you accept them as they are.
-Horseback riding near the pyramids of Giza, and seeing them silhouetted by the distant lights of the city
-Lying on a rooftop at night in northern Egypt staring up into the heavens, and getting completely lost in the boundless beauty of a midnight sky, especially after I figured out that I would never see a sight like that again in my entire life. And so far, I haven't.
-Feeling at home Sevilla, Spain, a city I had never previously visited.
