Hobbies

- Reading everything! I love: post-postmodern fiction by Zadie Smith, David Foster Wallace, Jonathan Franzen; Postmodern fiction by Philip Roth, Delillo, Borges, Thomas Pynchon, Alan Moore, Neil Gaiman, etc.; Nonfiction political, like Naomi Klein and Matt Taibbi; spiritual and philosophical investigation, and on and on! - Swimming, hiking, riding my beloved Fairdale bike all over Hyde Park, playing with Best Dog on Earth: Gary, playing old board games with my best friends - Writing and performing comedy in Austin - Keeping a diary, instead of a blog - To say I am a film enthusiast would be an understatement. I can't get enough. I'm there for all the culturally important films, from French noir to The Hunger Games; from cerebral science-fiction to goofy action films.
