"Post six random facts about yourself," he said.  "Sure," I said...

1. Sometimes I find myself reloading the page on this site or, say, Myspace or IMDB because I find the banner ads crass or they gross me out.

2. I lived in the same apartment, straddling two of Brooklyn's more gentrified nabes, from July 1995 - March 2006.  Starting rent: $600.  Ending rent: $800.

3. I have a couple of really bizarre hot buttons that you would never be able to predict in a million years, so don't even try.  They both involve drastic, irrational reactions to perceived feelings of vulnerability.

4. I really, really like doughnuts.  But not the kind with cream, jelly or other squishy shit, not usually.

5. Conversely, coffee I could take or leave.  I didn't even remotely come close to interest until this year, when iced coffee suddenly became "a thing."  Sorta.

6. I have a revolving cast of totem animals, including but not limited to: bats, rabbits, wolves, ravens (yeah, so I'm a Pagan, sue me), snakes, and, most recently, spiders.

7. I have a few real live muses.  Two of them are men.  One of them is New York City.
