| Location | Virginia, United States |
| Introduction | Used to be the black girl at the rock shows, I still occasionally get to be that girl. More recently, I'm a married mother of one and an operating room nurse which is overwhelming and exhilarating at the same time. I'm a case study in contradictions, a pessimistic optimist. A self-absorbed, but compassionate late-bloomer in life. |
| Interests | Music, nursing, buddhism, how to make real joy less fleeting, sanity. |
| Favorite movies | Fight Club, True Romance, Pulp Fiction, Kill Bill Vol 2 |
| Favorite music | More and more these days I'm listening to the blues. Punk, rock (harder, please) and I have a love/hate relationship with hip hop. Anything with substance and/or an irresistable beat. Being a child of the 70's, I know the words to just about every disco song out there. I'm musically schizophrenic. It's not strange for me to listen to Lupe Fiasco, Kate Bush, Willie Dixon and Bad Brains all in the same day. |
| Favorite books | She's Come Undone Love in the Time of Cholera |
When you hesitate before hitting snooze on your alarm clock, are you being lazy?
No, just a normal reaction to my average 4 hours sleep and the random waking chaos.
