Odds and Ends.

I am Kaitlin. (I can't use chopsticks, whistle, or wink. I still write letters. I once knew pi to 37 significant figures. Yes, I am a nerd/geek/dork. I dislike wearing shoes. It takes me longer than it should to read analogue clocks. I complain about the fact that I complain too much. I prefer Coke to Pepsi, books to magazines, night to day, chocolate to vanilla, cats to dogs, and jeans to shorts. I am narcissistic. I think you should learn Esperanto. I wish life were a musical.)

"We live in a society and a culture and an economic model that tries to make everything look right. Look at computers. Why are they all putty-colored or off-f******-white? You make something off-white or beige because you are afraid to use any other color – because you don’t want to offend anybody. But by definition, when you make something no one hates, no one loves it. So I am interested in imperfections, quirkiness, insanity, unpredictability. That’s what we really pay attention to anyway. We don’t talk about planes flying; we talk about them crashing."
