Back East... But Wishing I Was West...

Current Obsessions: LIFE magazine photo archive on Google, Special K Red Berries, reading the personals on CraigsList, looking for a fabulous apartment in Denver, White Christmas, A Prairie Home Companion, Guinness, The Economist, the browsing section of the library, the Smithsonian and Library of Congress's Flickr streams

In Search Of: a suitable male companion, a suitable canine companion, a pair of pearl studs, a pair of new heels, and several of the books on my reading list

Current Dislikes: dried fruit in most of its incarnations, Fanta orange drink, fried food, "Gossip Girl," girls and guys without gender-ambiguous balls, thinly veiled political tirades masquerading as fact, drafty doors, my inability to get ArtStor to work on my computer
