I'm just another clockwork
juggler with all the tick-tock-time in
the world. When I'm not puttering away in front of my computer or
sculpting away at some random
art project, I can be found climbing rocks
or
dancing the
night away. I enjoy learning and keeping my mind occupied with
things ranging from frivolous to fantastic. Give me a set of 3
balls and I'll entertain myself for hours. Give me a good meal, and
you may have a friend for life.
Oh, and fair warning: I can be a bit of a goofball, as I've always
felt that everyone needs a reason to question what's up and down.
I'm currently decaying at a graphic design position, but am working
on my application to SCAD-Atlanta. For the time being, I occupy
myself with various hobbies, seeking both enjoyment and personal
growth in whatever ways I can. That means juggling, reading, art
projects, dancing, learning, spending time with friends, etc.
I've also just moved to a new place as of the beginning of
February, so I'm in the process of settling in. It's been slow and
plagued by bouts of laziness, but it's now less "New Apartment" and
more "Welcome Home".
Not receiving compliments well. No, really. I worry that I come off
as rude or egotistical, but they really just make me nervous. Eh
heh. Nngh.
My glowing dorsal spines and
blue atomic fire breath!
Wait, no. Probably my smile. I normally smile a lot. Or my
juggling, since I've been doing a lot of that lately. Oh, and I can
laugh rather loudly, so maybe that would carry first. Bah! I don't
know, I never ask.

Friendship, music, art supplies,
Meaning, thought, and something to
juggle. Lately I've had a habit of juggling everywhere I go; it's a
fun and portable hobby, and entirely compatible with nearly
everything else I do.
The hidden meaning and symbolism behind what happens in our lives.
The things that tie us together, in brief moments of coincidence
and clarity. And random things, like how many zombie koala would it
take to defeat the Cloverfield monster? In general, I have trouble
zoning out, so the act of 'not thinking' isn't an option.
Out dancing with friends or possible working on some random art
project.
I'm not comfortable dancing without a hat or mask on. And if
neither of those are available, I always dance with my eyes closed.
Fortunately, I don't often bump into people while moving to the
beat.
You're an interestingly odd person who'd like to chat. And you
don't plan to eat my brains. Because I happen to like them where
they are.
