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.
