i am a graphic designer by day, and a crafter/videogame geek by night! i love making stuff and am usually trying to learn something new. i am a jack (or jill, rather) of many trades and master of none, and pretty happy that way. i am an east coast girl at heart but i now live in l.a. with my husband and our bunny rabbit. my life wouldn't be complete without bad puns, great graphics, being silly, and daydreaming.

linocuts, paper goods, zipper pouches, soap making, buttons, plush animals, crochet (though i'm just a beginner!), screenprinted or stenciled tees

i'm currently learning more about baking and just got a fabulous sunbeam mixer! i love making cupcakes and cookies. i'm also entering the world of the blythe doll, and am trying to learn how to sew to make doll clothes and such.

i'd say my favorite craft of all is... learning new crafts!

favorite authors: vonnegut, bradbury, salinger, kafka, irving

any of the PBS "House" series', seinfeld, daria, king of the hill, the office, lost, project runway, i hate my 30s, flight of the conchords

blues brothers, ghostbusters, ferris bueller's day off, donnie darko, todd solondz movies, john waters movies, coen brothers movies, i heart huckabees, other movies that spin your head upside down by the end. i also love 80s teen comedies like fast times at ridgemont high, the breakfast club, and all the john hughes flicks. universal monster movies are great. i'm becoming fascinated with hitchcock films lately, though sometimes you just can't go wrong with a good cheeseball comedy (along the lines of happy gilmore, old school, big trouble). i guess my tastes

I like a variety of things, including but not limited to indie rock, classic rock, blues, funk, folk. I don't like country or techno/dance music, but I do like some things that cross over different boundaries of music classifications. My favorite groups are They Might Be Giants and Sound Team. Currently I am revisiting old favorites like Weezer and Lou Reed and the Ramones.
