--Audrey Hepburn as Holly Golightly in Breakfast at Tiffany's

One of my favorite books of stories about L.A:

Squandering the Blue--Kate Braverman

Last two movies I watched:

The Last Picture Show (bleak and traumatizing, but good)
13 Going on 30--(very cute)

A song I can't get out of my head:

"Kind of Light"--The 88

A question people frequently ask me:

How did you get invited to that party, etc.?

(I'll have to add that to BAT FAQ)

Isn't Moveable Feast great! I read it last year before I went to Paris. I bought it after watching City of Angels. (It's the book Nicholas Cage leaves on Meg Ryan's nightstand.)

Robofrost writes

You are enigmatic, TAS.

THE LAST PICTURE SHOW is on my list of top 20 films of all time -- it's simply fantastic, and once-in-a-lifetime lightning-in-a-bottle for its key talent.

Enigmatic, huh? There's a line in one of Tom Robbins' fabulous novels that goes something like "munching on the foot of the enigma." Don't know why I would even bother to connect the two.
