I am awesome, smarmy, and awesome again.
My Self-Summary
I once accidentaly broke into a bank in New Orleans.
I worked in a history museum for 4 years, but don't really care all
that much about history.
I'm actually proud to be from Youngstown. I have no intentions of
ever moving back to Youngstown.
I'm really good at
Trivial Pursuit, above average
at
Uno, and I've never
finished a game of
Monopoly.
I appreciate a person who can tell a good story. Even if the story
is really boring, if they tell it right, I'll eat it up. If you're
really good at it, I'd probably listen to you read the
phonebook.
I bought a new camera while out in San Diego just because
everything was so gorgeous. I ended up talking about 5 pictures
because I was too busy actually doing stuff.
Whatever happened to spending an entire Sunday afternoon listening
to music?
I love stand-up comedy, especially seeing it live. Hilarities on
E4th is the best.
$10 Smart Seats at Playhouse Square! Why are you sitting in front
of your computer when you could be there with me?
I'm currently broiling a steak while I'm writing this. It will
probably get burnt.
What I’m doing with my life
I'm an accountant. Wait, it gets better. I'm an accountant for the
federal government.
I actually like my job. The work is challenging but fun, I've
gotten to travel a lot, I love my bosses and coworkers, I don't
have to work crazy hours, and it stays stress free most of the
time.
I'm in the perfect job that makes me happy. How many people can say
that? And you were ready to judge me when I said I was an
accountant for the government, weren't you?
I’m really good at
Making a joke at an inappropriate time? Saying the wrong thing?
Being introverted? Making situations akward?
I'm also pretty good at obscure movie trivia, driving during road
trips, losing money at the craps table, and zoning out during
conference calls.
The first things people usually notice about me
I couldn't say....but it's usually not the dry and sarcastic
tone.
That I'm not similar to this guy at all
---------------------------->
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
The last two books I read were
Atonement and
I Hope They Serve
Beer in Hell. I'm really sensitive, but still kind of a jerk.
I'd love to cuddle with you under an afghan, but point out all of
your flaws at the same time.
I'm a movie snob. Favorite movies as of this moment:
Punch-Drunk
Love,
Royal Tenenbaums,
Habla con Ella,
Amelie,
Memento and
Walk Hard.
I'm not a music snob. I like to hang out with people who have
terrible taste in music. I have Serge Gainsbourg, Conway Twitty and
Nick Cave all together on one playlist on my iPod.
I love reheated Taco Bell taco's, it's gross I know. And the steak
turned out perfectly in case you had to know. (marinated in olive
oil, crushed red pepper, and garlic cloves)
The six things I could never do without
My job, my friends, dvd's, the internet, terrible cliched answers,
and Balderdash.
I spend a lot of time thinking about
How I'm pretty happy with where I'm at right now. I like my job, I
like my friends, I like the free time I have and the stuff I fill
it with. Things are going pretty well for me. So why am I doing all
of this alone?
And then I break out into a nervous panic.
On a typical Friday night I am
7:00pm "Yeah this is great, I'm glad we decided to do happy hour.
It's just going to be a laid back night out."
9:30pm "No, I don't really want to go to a club. Is there a live
band at least."
10:15pm "Why am I in a place where the best gin is Seagrams and the
best tequila is Cuervo Gold?"
11:45pm "I hate bachelorette parties. No you're hot sweety. Watch
your drink you almost spilled it on me"
12:05am "get off the bull dude, no one wants to see you on
there"
12:30am "It's really dark in this basement club, and it smells like
weed and Drakkar Noir"
1:00am At this point I usually see something that I can never
unsee, or try to prevent someone from drunk-dialing.
2:00am "why does every happy hour end like this? I'm not getting
tricked into this again."
Repeat two weeks later because I never learn that we're never going
to have a casual night out. Ever. This is a cry for help.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
I hide my true feelings and fears with a heavy layer of jokes and
sarcasm.
