About
“It is in vain to say human beings ought to be satisfied with tranquillity: they must have action; and they will make it if they cannot find it. Millions are condemned to a stiller doom than mine, and millions are in silent revolt against their lot. Nobody knows how many rebellions besides political rebellions ferment in the masses of life which people earth. Women are supposed to be very calm generally: but women feel just as men feel; they need exercise for their faculties, and a field for their efforts, as much as their brothers do; they suffer from too rigid a restraint, to absolute a stagnation, precisely as men would suffer; and it is narrow-minded in their more privileged fellow-creatures to say that they ought to confine themselves to making puddings and knitting stockings, to playing on the piano and embroidering bags. It is thoughtless to condemn them, or laugh at them, if they seek to do more or learn more than custom has pronounced necessary for their sex.”
― Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre

I know where my towel is.
I am not incredibly active here anymore, but I just found out that my sister-- who is ten years my junior-- just joined! Which simultaneously made me feel INCREDIBLY OLD, and also that I absolutely MUST come out of my self-imposed hiatus! HALOOOOO, GAIA! I HAVE RETURNED! OR WHATEVER!
I'm a grownup (sorta) who is an actor, musician, and model in NYC. That means I am, for all intents and purposes, unemployed pretty much of the time. I spend most of my time waiting to be seen at auditions, modeling for free just to keep my portfolio fresh, and playing guitar in the subway system so I can afford to eat (mostly pizza). But I'm cool with it.
Jane Eyre and The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy tie as my favorite books. Outlaw Star is my favorite anime. Hair is my favorite musical. I have ten bazillion favorite musicians (yea, I know). I am working on a chiptune project with this one nerdcore rapper, so stay tuned. Also, I have an album on Spotify, iTunes, and Amazon, so PM me if you wanna know what it is.
wink On a side note, I am getting married sometime to this really nifty human being I met over six years ago, and who is a rocket scientist AND an amazing painter. Yea, I know, I hit the jackpot. Sorry not sorry? In other news, I really really love sweets, especially ice creams, gelato, that sort of thing. I am easily bribed with promises of sweets and hugs. I love people, and I am pretty easy-going, but I am easily bored with folks who confuse debate with argument, and I don't do well with hypocrisy. Just a head's up, ya know? Other than that, HIGH FIVE!
Let's be friends.
And happy.
And respectful.
'Kay?
COOL BEANS! HUGS! <3

"I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness, starving hysterical naked, dragging themselves through the negro streets at dawn looking for an angry fix, angelheaded hipsters burning for the ancient heavenly connection to the starry dynamo in the machinery of night, who poverty and tatters and hollow-eyed and high sat up smoking in the supernatural darkness of cold water flats, floating across the tops of cities contemplating jazz, who bared their brains to Heaven under the El and saw Mohammedan angels staggering on tenement roofs illuminated, who passed through universities with radiant cool eyes
hallucinating Arkansas and Blake-light tragedy among the scholars of war...."
-lyrics from Howl
by Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997)

“Build a house?" exclaimed John.
"For the Wendy," said Curly.
"For Wendy?" John said, aghast. "Why, she is only a girl!"
"That," explained Curly, "is why we are her servants.”
― J.M. Barrie, Peter Pan
