| Bio: | I just moved to New York City. Insert your city-newcomer stereotype here. Hey, at least I know how to swipe my Metrocard.
These things will never change: I'm in love with the ocean--Aegean, please, but Pacific will do. I dislike displays of excessive sincerity. I have been accused of cynicism. If you use a comma incorrectly, I will undoubtedly correct you. (And, for the record, I favor the use of the serial comma.)
Other random facts:
I fully intend to someday live in Paris and write the Great American Novel.
I will never use a pen name.
I'm influenced excessively by music I like. (See above.)
I feel rather like I never graduated, except now UCLA campaigns for my money even more aggressively than when I paid tuition.
If you talk in a movie theatre, I will ask you to be quiet. Don't think I can't hear you.
And in conclusion:
"The rest would be history if it were more important."--Dave Foley
"Safe upon the solid rock the ugly houses stand:
Come and see my shining palace built upon the sand!"
