I have no idea. That isn't a substitute for answering the question; it *is* my self-summary.

Ok, in actuality there's more to me than I could scribble onto the entire floor of the SouthLand mall, which means I wouldn't know where to start or where to end.

---
here's a little bit more about me.. something I wrote the day before yesterday:

"""
I want..

I wanna drive an ice cream truck down a desert road.
I wanna live under a pavilion and have those few things I need in life for free.
I wanna show up at the airport shoeless, park in an illegal spot, and fly to California on a dubious credit card, for no apparent reason.
I wanna fly an ultralight to the mall and back whenever I need to get something from RadioShack.
I wanna ride a ship over seas instead of a plane, like they did in the olden days. I wanna ride a train cross country, and not the Am-Trak -- a real train like what Billy the Kid would have ridden.
I wanna lay down in a parking lot and birdwatch, and if people don't like it they can step over me.
I wanna live only at barbeque parties. I want a beach in my backyard where people can come and eat and drink for free, sit on cheap and efficient patio furniture, and socialize.
I want to see people having sex on their front porches, and random orgies on the beach.
I want a falling star to be something you can catch in your hand -- but only when the mood is right.
I want to kiss a girl's face because she's beautiful and the sight of her makes me happy -- not because I've convinced her somewhere along the way that I'd be a satisfactory s/o.
I wanna die and scale the neighborhood in a single breath; I wanna be the one who causes poltergeist in service of a guru in the flesh.
I want to sit in wait in the halls of Alcatraz -- not because I have to, but because I can scare the shit out of the living.
I want aquamarine and other colors to be tangible identities, rather than mere topical applications.
I want to see the aurora borealis 2 nights out of 3 -- and not just in AK.
I want Jack Horkheimer to live forever.
I want kittens, because they couldn't be more perfect than they already are.
I want music to be something you'd be likely to hear as you're strolling the neighborhood, and not because you've brought along an iPod..
I want.. to go to the park, only, I don't want to be bored once I get there.
"""

recently started going back to school so i can get a degree in CS.
there are also a few projects i work on sometimes: one is a website, one is a music-creating+audio-engineering application, one is a book of random essays, and others.
lately i've been going to star parties with my friend steve. i'm not into astronomy (except for good Hubble pictures); it's just for something to do. i don't get out much.

Super Mario Brothers 3, F-Zero X, Off Road Challenge, racing games in general, typing, writing, running, jumping, using logic to show contradicting conclusions, paradox solving, describing what shape you're thinking of, mind control.

I have no idea. Why don't you tell me?

(that was circa 1999 though.)

books: Neale Donald Walsch, Mike Dooley, Eckhart Tolle, Donna Williams, Tito Rajarshi Mukhopadhyay, Al Franken, John Edward, Masaru Emoto, Michael Newton, Robert Monroe, Brian Weiss, 'Would You Rather...?', 'Half the World', various autobiographies. i never would have expected I'd like autobiographies so much.. it's not fandom, or even vicariousness. i've just realized that all the ones I've read are really "rich" in some undefinable way, even for books.

movies: Joe Vs. the Volcano, What Dreams May Come, Matrix Reloaded, Hook, Powder, Waking Life, City of Angels, Ghostbusters, Groundhog Day, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Mrs. Doubtfire, Pleasantville, Princess Bride, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, et al, and probably lots of foreign films - i've only seen very few, and I liked them. an American film is 2 hours of momentary entertainment; foreign films make an impression on your soul.

music: trance, club, dance, soundtrack, neoclassical, ethereal darkwave, salsa, baroque, Christmas, *some* new age, various songs in (or not in) miscellaneous genres. I'm thoroughly disgusted by rock, metal, etc.

food: triple peanut butter cup icecream, honey dew, blueberries, watermelon, chicken tandoori, lamb tikka masala, mango, California navel oranges, Publix subs, Golden Grahams, Arby's turkey & swiss marketfresh sandwiches, Hershey's Cacao Reserve, carbonated white grape juice, white grape peach juice, Juicy Juice, smoothies, orange julius, anything with banana peppers.

There aren't six things that are guaranteed to last forever, and I'm not gonna jinx myself!

myself, metaphysics/the universe, ideas for projects that i may or may not actually begin and will probably never finish, how i would act in imaginary situations or situations from tv shows, amazing powers and abilities, other possible worlds / modalities of being, fame, why there are 3 spatial dimensions (at least ostensibly), the strong anthropic principle, what time is, the relationship between matter and energy, why dogs are *so* amazing, what it's like to see in 4 or more primary colors, whether mother nature created parasites intentionally or not, ideal (or best-fit) political and economic systems, and our systematic devastation of the earth and related problems.

...not aware that it's a Friday

I often watch an entire movie and have no idea what the names of any of the characters are. I did that just last night with Lars and the Real Girl. I could probably tell you the whole plot, but you could name anyone from that movie and it wouldn't so much as ring a bell (except that I know who Lars is because his name is in the title). Oh, I also do the same thing with novels, although I don't generally read fiction nowadays.

a) You're cute and you want to kiss me, b) You want to converse/debate about anything philosophical or analytical, c) You have an important message for me from the year 2039, d) You have some other reason to message me, e) You have no reason whatsoever.

seriously, i mainly just want someone to share some affection with. but i don't think i'm looking for an exclusive or long-term relationship right now.. unless, perhaps, you happen to be The One
