About Me

My Photo
Stephanie
I have a complete aversion to bright lighting. It's a thing with me. Fluorescents in particular are dreadful. Candles, eyelash lampshades, lights with dimmers are a few of my favorite things. I'm a Libra, loving art and natural beauty, with a particular disdain for loudness, disloyalty and violence of any kind. I'm mesmerized by Fran Lebowitz. Married? Been there, picked the wrong guy, gave him the wrong finger. I'm bit of an audiophile and a Morrissey devotee, write and publish the occasional music review. I cringe at Nickleback. My favorite band is The Smiths, and I adore Canadian female singer/songwriters Joni Mitchell, Sarah Harmer and Kathleen Edwards. But south of the 49th, Lucinda Williams' sadness is simply stunning. I'm terribly sentimental and suffer from bouts of melancholy, to which I credit my Irish grandfather. I love and adore my cat BudBud; a gorgeous Shaded Silver Persian who suffers from the worst case of crabbiness. I got him from an old boyfriend as a parting gift. The best thing any guy ever gave me.
