Five words can't define anything.
Three years ago I was given a second chance at this life, and now it holds this sort of glow that it never had before. I want to go everywhere and learn as much as I can in my short time here. I think every human emotion in the human spectrum is worth feeling, even the bad ones. Specifically, I'm kind of shy, occasionally witty, hopefully funny, and try to be kind to everyone that I meet. I should have been born sometime around 1905. I'm always reading at least three books; right now it's seven. I enjoy absurdity. I appreciate well constructed sentences. I like small bars that feel like coffee shops, and I strongly dislike clubs. I'm pretty far left politically. I'm vegetarian, although I still really miss bacon. I love this hurried and vastly entertaining city, but always find myself missing dirt and trees. I've been reading the poem Where the Sidewalk Ends to the kids I take care of and think that children can't fully grasp the beauty that was Shel Silverstein.
More than anything, I want a life that's worth living.
I'd like to meet people who have stories, who read for pleasure, who look at the bright side, who are indiscriminately kind, who will spend a Sunday watching movies and eating pizza, who are interested in film and art, who want more than just another person to fulfill them, who can debate freely without getting irrational, and who can't abide life without laughter.
The best thing about Chicago is: It has everything, and unlike New York, that includes nice people.
The meanest thing I have ever done is I don't do mean things.
If I could have a dinner party and invite any four people, dead or alive, the guest list would be: Charlie Chaplin, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Charles Beaudelaire, and Nicholas Skala.
My favorite Chicago haunts are: Map Room. The Art Institute. The lily pool/Zoo/that tree-lined path just south of the zoo. Sox park, which I will never, ever call "The Cell". The Landmark Century. The Pointe, by the MSI. I really miss this bookstore on 57th too, the name of which escapes me. But it was my happy place when I lived in Hyde Park.
The first thing I do when I wake up is: Hit snooze for an hour.
If I could change one thing about Chicago, it would be: The winter. I think everyone's on board with that one.
One thing people are surprised to find out about me is: I'm a blonde.
The first thing I look at in the Reader is: I Saw You. It bolsters my faith in humanity.
The last concert I went to was: Micachu and The Shapes at Schuba's.
Two books everyone should read are: The Unbearable Lightness of Being, by Milan Kundera. Everything is Illuminated, by Jonathan Safron Foer.
My favorite tv show to watch as a kid was: The Golden Girls, and that holds true to this day.
My theme song is Confessions of a Futon Revolutionist by The Weakerthans.
If you have a pet, it better not be a scorpion.
If I were a super hero, I would be an empath, assuming there are other super heroes out there.
The quickest way to my heart is humor The quickest way to my bed is intelligence and in the morning, I like my eggs cooked without yolks.
The person I'd like to tell off most is yeah, it's still Bush.
Buster Keaton makes me sweat.
Two things I can't live without are books and film/friends/can't narrow it any furthur
It's Sunday morning at 10 a.m. If I'm not sleeping, I'm dead
I consider myself an open-minded person, but my deal breakers are a lack of kindness and right wingers
My ideal mate has the brain of Alain de Botton and the body of Robert Downey Jr.
