When we remember that we are all mad, the mysteries disappear and life stands explained. -- Mark Twain
Literary crush:
Sarah Vowell is my literary girl crush; otherwise, my literary crushes are pretty embarrassing - think high school girls & the vampire Lestat. I know, totally embarrassing.
Currently reading:
On deck:
Into Thick Air - about bicycling to the lowest point on each of the continents; The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman.
How can they not ask after favorites? Mine are The World According to Garp, Lolita & 1984.
On my ipod:
Most recently, Secret, Profane & Sugarcane by Elvis Costello. Otherwise, everything from U2 to Van Morrison to Tupac to Outkast to Marty Robbins to Bad Religion.
Traveling style:
Truth be told, who doesn't prefer first class flights and hotels? Living in reality puts a bit of a damper on that, tho, doesn't it? I'm down for anything NOT involving prop planes, insects and a lack of hot water.
Languages:
Where I've been:
Ireland - study abroad; Italy - work - I spent lots of time in Florence & managed to get to Sicily; my cat is named after the Cappuchan Catacombs in Palermo. Switzerland - pleasure; France - pleasure; London - pleasure. Domestically, I've been around California, to Phoenix, Montana, Dallas, New York, Ann Arbor and Boston.
Recent:
I'm not much of a moviegoer but the last two things I saw were The Hangover and before that, Man On Wire.
What I'd like to see:
Bruno & Harry Potter are next up.
