Profile is out of date because I'm 33 now and I last had an active account when I was 19. So, sorry for the cringe - imagine we're all 12 years younger.
I grew up more or less in New York City, then went to college in Utah, and I lived in Baltimore, San Francisco, Detroit, Connecticut, and now back to Brooklyn.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies:
I have always wanted to see more David Lynch and Woody Allen. I love 'The Waking Life,' 'Being John Malkovitch,' 'Wall-E,' 'The Dark Knight,' 'Milk,' 'Back to the Future,' Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Pulp Fiction, Requiem for a Dream, and the compilation of 12-oz. Mouse.

Music:
Largely indie-rock, though I hate to be such a cliché:
Weakerthans, Decemberists, The Mountain Goats, Of Montreal, Magnetic Fields. Also classics, like The Beatles, Pink Floyd, ect. I am also embarrassingly knowledgeable and passionate about musicals-Les Misearables, Avenue Q, Porgy and Bess, Spamalot, anything by Gilbert and Sullivan.

Books:
The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and everything by Douglas Addams
Crime and Punishment
Cryptonomicon
Roald Dahl's short stories
bukowski, in general
e. e. cummings
Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?
Camus

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Immediately after my nineteenth birthday, I decided it was time for me to leave Salt Lake City. So I gave two weeks notice at my job, obtained a couple of panniers and other camping equipment, and hopped on a bicycle. I rode my bicycle to Oregon, and then I took the Greyhound, as my bicycle got stolen, wandering to whatever city called me for several months,(Madison, Boise, Pendleton, Portland, Seattle, Chicago, Minneapolis) until I ended up in Baltimore. It was amazing to be so free, to sleep where I wanted, in cemeteries and on stranger's couches, under trees and in lean-tos, in hostels and, for one luxurious week on the Salt Lake City Slam Poetry Team's dime, a hotel.
