About Me

28 years of sass and wit all rolled up into one amazon of a girl. I'm a writer of ill formed thoughts on very public places, and a mother to 1-1/2 year old GiGi. I would say that it isn't anyones business that my daughter is blind, but it is. I have a gigantic appreciation for every single element in our environment now, and I view things from an entirely different perspective. Loves: Nonfiction reads, overwhelming myself with projects, attempting to cook, eating out, spending money in silly stores, art, thecreation of art, Indie music, music in *all* forms, pumpkins, horror flicks, trashy mags, politically incorrect conversations, photography, mustaches (on others), demetri martin, children's shoes (I have ovaries, so yes, shoes.), avocados, Oakland, Alameda & of course - The City!

    I love your quote – I will have to use that as well, except I would say ‘mommy needs a glass of wine’. Doesn’t quite ring the same as Martini, hmm maybe I need to switch to martinis.
