i've dreamt of being a monk since i was 8;
now i'm just a loud-mouthed introvert who laughs alot.
i believe in public radio, public television and micro-loans;
by the end of each passing year, i will be in a better position
to donate more than the year before.
i think folks who are my age
and are already saving/investing for their retirement
are sexy, sexy bitches.
they know what's up, and that's just hot.
and speaking of hot,
so are people who are curious and creative
for no reason except that they enjoy
the process of finding out and giving shape to things.
so are folks with a deep sense of their personal faith, whatever it may be,
and of their place in history.
so beautiful.
mmm, so are people with a deeply rooted, unshakable sense of perspective.
got an eye on the bigger picture, and can locate your situation in the scheme of things? you. are. delicious.

for me, it's always a joy to be around:
- storytellers;
- peeps indelibly marked by the pacific ocean -- who spent their childhood ankle-deep in sand, bare-skinned and burnt by the sun, mesmerized by the power & beauty of the pacific;
- persons who like to break a sweat getting dirty on the dance floor;
- conscious Queer/T-ish peeps of colo(u)r who can get down with some serious eats & laughter;
- avid scrabble & balderdash players;
- barefoot wanderers, weight lifters, v-ballers & general fans of bodies in motion;
- former military brats. geminis. other introverts who like to party.

I want to meet Cornel West (for the start of a 20-year conversation), Maxwell (for a little soulful bump & grind), Ira Glass (because I'm auditorily stimulated) and Amy Sedaris (because I want to have her babies).
