| Introduction | I believe in the creative expression of life through writing, art, and photography. I believe in peanut M&M's, enjoying red wine and dark chocolate, looking at good design and inspiring architecture. I believe that laughter, humor, and good coffee should be in everyone's daily repertoire. I could eat oysters with every meal. I want to eat at the French Laundry someday. I don't carry my camera with me nearly as much as I should. My two favorite sounds are a baby's giggle and champagne corking. I have lived in France and want to live there again. People tell me I look like Rene Russo. I am addicted to music and books. I own 20 of the same shade of lipstick. I tend to gravitate toward quirky people. I was raised by four parents and two grandmothers. I call my maternal grandmother by her first name, which also happens to be my middle name. She taught me how to play pool. I am an only child and a democrat. I love sleep. I hate board games. I could live on sushi for the rest of my life. I believe in humanity. I practice Reiki but not religion. |
