I've too many passions to list, and things I love.

General stuff I dig would be vinyl toys/robots, thrift store shopping, designing outfits, etsy, zines, animation(particularly mid 90's kids shows, 80's and oddball stuff...I LOVE Rocko's Modern Life, which is a huge inspiration for me as well as Invader Zim and late 80's cartoons. Oh and anything with Pee Wee Herman. One day I want a house like out of Pee Wee's Big Adventure) Retro gaming for sure...not too big into 3d games. I like independent developed games as well, but anything with 80's arcade or SNES/Genesis/Game Boy Advance graphics I dig. Um, I have a soft spot for fast food/advertising mascot stuff.

Most people who know me probably know my main obsession is music, particularly discovering zillions of new eclectic indie bands every week. I LOVE going to shows and going out dancing now and then, tho random road trips and shenanigans are the best. Also big into film, with an emphasis on indie/foreign/documentary/non Japanese animation. Though I love some anime(like Miyazaki) Also I have a pretty expansive dorky/stripey/cartoon sock collection. I think I like Gonzo so much, as well as Kramer from Seinfeld as I just dig that whole dress style. I used to be a lot more into Japanese pop culture and kitch. I still have a thing for 1920's-1950's stylings, films and aesthetics.

TV wise, Im religiously obsessed(ok maybe not religiously) with Seinfeld, Curb Your Enthusiasm, and anything from that realm. I also love Woody Allen films...I joke Im part new york Jewish by now. Im a HUGE fan of Big Bang Theory and the Office as well.

I used to read a ton, both historical/biography/philosophy/speculative and fiction. Sadly kind of fell out of that. I think I mentioned I like to be crafty. LOVE photography, creative writing, working on animation and music every day. A lot of random moments of small beauty can be captured with photography, stuff a lot of people never notice. I think even if someone can just doodle on a card, that's art...and the real personal kind.
