forum profile.
What is the origin of your username?
My name is a result of my instrument (trombone), and my name (Katie), thus <b>trombonekatie</b>.
Most people actually call me "Kat", really, but <b>trombonekat</b> doesn't flow right.
And yes. That's a bear holding a mailbox.
What do you want to be when you grow up?
I want to be a combination of MFS and Frank Zappa, but with a bionic arm, and maybe like a built in wheat grass machine or something like that. That way, I could post a lot on spacefem and play guitar amazingly at the same time. Nothing else in life would matter.
What do you feel is your greatest achievement in life?
Becoming the first President of the United States and inventing electricity.
What are your favorite books of all time?
Breakfast at Tiffany's by Truman Capote
Candide by Voltaire
The Master & Margarita by Mikhail Bulgakov
What do you like/not like to wear?
I always wear this black (cough cough american apparel) hoodie that my friend Connor left at my house about two hundred years ago. It's got about two hundred holes (one for each year it has been in my possession), paint splotches, frayed edges, and bleach spots on it. I always stick lighters in the front pockets and loose them because I'm an idiot. I have cut thumb holes for myself for holding hot cups of coffee.
I also really like highwater trousers and jeans. Kind of tight with the crease in front. Oh yeah. If my pants are not kind of highwater in the first place, I end up rolling them up anyway so they don't catch on my bike.
What's your major?
Sociology, minoring in Journalism... going to Portland State next semester, hopefully I'll like it better than I liked Sac State.
What are your favorite movies?
Pulp Fiction. I can recite Samuel L. Jackson's Ezekiel 25:17 speech word for word on demand.
...The Royal Tenenbaums, Harold and Maude, The Graduate, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Almost Famous, Blue Velvet, Eraserhead, The Science of Sleep, Clerks, Citizen Kane, The Shining, Juno, The Edukators, American Psycho, Pi, Dawn of the Dead (1978)
And Amelie, because I want to ride on the back of some cute french guy's scooter to a Yann Tiersen soundtrack after having phenomenal sex.
What part of the world do you live in? Do you like it?
Portland, Oregon: in the Pacific Northwest of America!
I love the rain and the friends. Skinny dipping, sipping infinite bowl-like cups of coffee, and waking up at six am in a tent with six other people, still drunk, hugging a boot.
