About me

IntroductionI have a BA in Essentially Useless Studies from a super snobby liberal arts school. I'm mostly clueless about what I want to do with my life, but grad school is always in the cards. I blog about my irregular reading habits (and sundry other obsessions) when I feel like it. Parentheses and semicolons are a yes; Oxford comma is a no. I firmly believe that everything can be ameliorated by coffee, chocolate and Jane Austen.
InterestsReading, sleeping, coffee, crosswords, and beauty wherever I find it.
Favorite moviesThe Importance of Being Earnest, The Princess Bride, Charade, Fiddler on the Roof, Cranford, Bleak House, Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day, pretty much any Austen adaptation, The Devil Wears Prada, Austenland, Easy A, Little Dorrit, Much Ado About Nothing
Favorite musicSimon and Garfunkel, The Decemberists, Sara Bareilles, Florence + the Machine, Lake Street Dive

Wodehouse, The Scarlet Pimpernel, Frances and Bernard, The Habit of Being, Sunshine, A Series of Unfortunate Events, Shakespeare, Murder in the Cathedral, Les Miserables, Lord Peter Wimsey, Bleak House, Anne of Green Gables, the other Anne books, My Family and Other Animals, 84 Charing Cross Road, the Betsy-Tacy books, the Lymond Chronicles, Arcadia, To Say Nothing of the Dog, Terry Pratchett, True Grit, etc.

Oscillate my metallic sonatas with your plan for the Panama canal:

Only if you throw in the complete works of Anthony Trollope.
