I suppose I should #introduce myself!

I'm a metadata #librarian at an academic library. I mainly do "strategy" work like developing metadata application profiles and devising best practices. I'm also faculty.

I'm a huge fan of film and literature, as well as music (particularly goth and glam rock). Over the past few years, I've gotten really into #opera.

My @ is a pun on the David Lynch film "Wild at Heart" and the fact that I love Oscar Wilde.

2. Look what came in the mail today:

1. I finally watched Crash

T O D A Y

I’ve told y’all that I’m obsessed with Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, right? Took a class on the author in college. Read the poem in Middle English multiple times. My license plate is the manuscript’s call number in the British Library.

Here I am visiting it:

I’ve been waiting for almost three years to see Green Knight. I get to finally see it in 10 days. This doesn’t feel real.

Arthur is exploring his new cat tree

Go see Pig *right now*. It is one of the best films I have seen in years.

My boyfriend and I are seeing Pig tonight, and in two weeks we’re seeing Green Knight!!!!!!!!

Boyfriend and I are probably seeing Pig on Friday! First time either of us had been in a theater in over a year (his birthday Star Wars screening doesn’t count), and it’s only our second movie theater date.

I would give anything to be at Cannes right now to see Benedetta and Titane.

I bought a lovesac

Have now seen The Godfather I & II. I think I like the first one more. Need more De Niro in my life.

Update boyfriend indeed got Cruising for me as a present

Got a new cat tree for His Majesty

I think my boyfriend is buying the movie Cruising for me 👀👀👀👀👀

Simping for Umberto Eco

We all know I love semiotics.

I’ve read parts of the book. I need to finish it.

Watching The Name of the Rose for my podcast, and one of my co-hosts turned my current thoughts about it into a meme:

My boyfriend showed me Vice (2018) and holy shit that’s a good movie.
