ABOUT ME

scheming, writing, developing, listening, walking, obsessing over the crossword. on the very best days, salt flats and ghost towns and unimproved dirt roads and prairie dogs and off, off, off broadway and vivid 70s cibachrome photographs of earth-toned motel rooms with half-open windows. else, doogie howser on hulu.
