I am snarky, understanding, and caring.
My Self-Summary
I think of myself as an intellectual, but I never take myself too
seriously. I'm goofy and a bit corny at heart, and I love to make
people laugh. I'm a
writer by trade. and I truly enjoy what I
do. I'm very creative and I like to find new ways to use it. I
enjoy
nature
walks, playing
Wii, travel, discussing everything from
music to religion, local events, occasional concerts, and
theater. I have also
embraced my inner
geek and enjoy paper RPGs (if not taken too
seriously). I'm allergic to drama. I just overcame my fear of
needles and got my first tattoo and I'm anxious to get more!
What I’m doing with my life
In the last year, I've quit smoking, mostly quit drinking, and gave
up caffeine. Going back to college soon to study
English and
technical writing. Just moved
back into a new place, so I'm on a bit of a decorating kick. My
main focus right now is finishing my first novel and losing more
weight. I spend a few hours every evening to work on my novel,
which is a sci-fi comedy. So far it's as much fun to write as it is
to read! I hope to have it published by next year! I also volunteer
for MarCon, a local sci-fi convention.
I’m really good at
Listening, understanding, one-liners, amusing myself and amusing
others, self-depreciation, believing in my friends... mostly, I'm a
jack of all trades, so I'm a decent at most things.
The first things people usually notice about me
When I have a beard, I look like Kevin Smith. When I don't, I look
like Jack Black. (Perhaps they look like ME, ever think of that?!)
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
Books... well, let's go with authors. Mercedes Lackey, Piers
Anthony, Douglas Adams, Dan Brown, Neil Gaiman, Mickey Zucker
Reichert, Laurell K. Hamilton, and Daniel Quinn.
Movies include Across the Universe, Krull, Legend, Ladyhawke,
Labyrinth, The Last Samurai, The Dark Crystal, Benny and Joon,
Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Thank You For Smoking, Burn After
Reading, How To Lose Friends and Alienate People, Airplane!, and
Serenity. I'm also a fan of a few TV shows like Firefly, Buffy,
Angel, Legend of the Seeker, Babylon 5, Dead Like Me, MXC,
Rifftrax, and Mystery Science Theater 3000.
Musically, I love everything from symphony to scream metal. I'm
picky on my rap and country. I'm a huge fan of TOOL, Lacuna Coil,
Nightwish, Shiny Toy Guns, Delerium, Sarah Brightman, and many
others. I get a lot of soundtracks to inspire scenes when I
write.
Food-wise, I love Chinese, Mexican, Thai, Pho, pizza, and bd's
Mongolian Barbecue.
The six things I could never do without
Spiritual discussion
Car
Cell phone
Computer
Internet
Books
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Spiritualism.
I am a Christian, but a breed apart. I do not think my path is
right for everyone, and that everyone has a right to believe
whatever they will. I love having a diverse group of friends.
On a typical Friday night I am
Popping off to Outland on Liberty, or getting together with friends
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
I died when I was a kid. drowned in our back swimming pool. CPR
brought me back. That's one of the reasons why my interests are so
diverse, I want to experience as much as possible!
You should message me if
You'd love to talk to someone who can be a very good friend, or
would like to get together sometime for dinner a movie, a play, a
concert, or a show.
