I am 25 and I live in NYC, but I grew up chasing tumbleweeds and hornytoads in New Mexico. I write things for a living, for now. I like the arts, photographs, old movies, the web, and the city, and tend to wonder how each influences the other. I thought this might be a good place to collect a few of the million images, sounds and ideas I get distracted by every day--sentimental though they may be. Welcome to my corner.
And if you just want to say hi, please do. I write back.

Cleavage, of course, helped me a lot to get where I am. I don’t know how they got there.”](http://media.tumblr.com/lDJ4lgWNtbovo658WFb8cdic_500.jpg)
