threeplusfireeating out: restaurants are neat. especially eating all kinds of interesting food.
edith wharton: my favorite American author, absolutely brilliant. her work grasps all the frailty of the human heart when confronted by "society."
evan zimroth: author of a peculiar, semi-autobiographical novel, Collusion that I read in less than six hours.
evzen: one of my favorite people
falling: both in metaphors and the waking world.
fatalism: one of my bad habits. "Doom!"
fate: again, the question. do we have a specific fate waiting?
films: one of the coolest inventions ever, in my opinion. I could watch a movie every day. my mother raised me on old black and white horror flicks with Bela Lugosi and Boris Karloff, Bogart, Hepburn, Bacall, all the classics.
flowers: somethings should just be beautiful. I love to have them around.
freedom: too many people now see it as freedom from things, but it should be freedom to experience all things
french horn: used to play, and I miss it sorely. the most beautiful brass instrument in the orchestra.
french literature: dark, pretty, strange, and thought provoking, from Camus to Simone deBeauvoir to Choderlos de Laclos
gene novark: grammar nazi extraordinare, beer-making fiend, with a dictionary fetish and a hell of a cd collection. the only person who can get away with being mean to me.
german engineering: hello automobile. hello highway.
good friends: quite possibly the most important thing in the entire world.
good smelling soap: another one of my obsessions, I have a collection to rival most stores. life is not as much fun without dozens of soaps to choose from every day. yes, I have a problem, and no I am not going to stop now.
grad school: the next step, I think. being a weird kid, I like school.
hana pichova: my wise and insightful Czech professor, who changed my life in many ways. she is one of my personal role models, being an incredible woman, a great mom, and one of the best professors to ever teach a literature class.
harpers: one of the few well done magazines out there, always a mix of interesting things, never dull.
haruki murakami: brilliant author of The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle, a startling novel.
hazelnuts: best nuts ever, really. good in all things, especially chocolate.
henry luce: the man who created Time magazine, and changed the world of journalism forever.
homemade cinnamon rolls: there is something quite satisfying about the soft puffy dough turning into sticky sweet goodies.
iced vanilla hazelnut coffee: my constant drink at Metro. some of the staff doesn't even bother to ask anymore.
intelligent people: one of the pleasures of living is to stay up all night talking about all kinds of things with these people.
interesting conversation: this goes along with the intelligent people bit. I have been quite fortunate to meet various people in the waking world and online who have offered all sorts of conversation, from fanfiction to the politics of being female
invisible friends: I had an invisible winged unicorn when I was a kid.
ivan klima: an author I didn't really start to appreciate until this year. No Saints or Angels is one of the best novels I have read this year.
