I am straightforward, lazy, and imaginative.
My Self-Summary
I've spent the last two years both celibate and alone, by choice,
completely avoiding dating, sex, romance and relationships. I'm not
quite sure yet if I want to break that streak, but I'm opening
myself up a little bit again to seeing what's out there. The point
being, I'm sort of a mess, incredibly busy, and probably a bit
narcissistic. Some people like that, though, I guess.
What I’m doing with my life
I'm a writer and editor for Las Vegas Weekly, where I mainly
do movie and TV reviews, plus read all the stories in the paper and
make sure the commas are in the right places and things are spelled
properly. I'm also the TV Comedies Guide for About.com, and the
movie reviewer for 107.5-FM. Basically, I spend all my time
watching movies and TV shows, and then writing and talking about
them.
I’m really good at
Expressing myself via the written word, can't you tell? Also being
sarcastic and biting, and giving people advice even if I can't get
my own life together. I'm also a champion speller. I have the
trophy to prove it.
The first things people usually notice about me
My hair. Not that many guys have long hair these days. I kind of
look like a refugee from Poison a little.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
Books: Lots of Stephen King, especially The Stand and Hearts in
Atlantis. Clive Barker's Imajica. William Gibson's Idoru and
Neuromancer. Ursula LeGuin's The Dispossessed. Mary Shelley's
Frankenstein. Lots of horror and sci-fi.
Movies: Too many to name. A sampling: Heathers, Fight Club, South
Park, Clerks, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, The Craft,
Scream, Big Lebowski, Bound, Wild Things, Almost Famous, Batman
(Tim Burton-style), Rosemary's Baby, The Birds, Manhattan, Bring It
On, Gattaca, Carrie, Pulp Fiction, Terminator 2, Breathless, Lone
Star, La Femme Nikita, Romy & Michele's High School Reunion,
Alien, Invasion of the Body Snatchers, Heat, To Die For, Interview
With the Vampire, Hannah and Her Sisters, Rear Window, The Silence
of the Lambs, Quick Change, Clueless, Chasing Amy, The
Conversation, Out of Sight, Misery, Annie Hall, Before Sunset,
North by Northwest, Face/Off, The Last Picture Show, The Truman
Show, The Matrix, Three Kings, Halloween, Memento, The Fly, About
Schmidt, Wayne's World, etc.
Music: All-time favorites include Guns N' Roses, Pearl Jam,
Metallica, Weezer, Tool, Nirvana, Garbage, Soundgarden, Alice in
Chains. Lately, I tend to gravitate toward metal (Shadows Fall,
Killswitch Engage, Trivium, God Forbid, In Flames, etc.), country
(Tift Merritt, Shelby Lynne, Allison Moorer, Julie Roberts, Miranda
Lambert, Drive-By Truckers, etc.) and pop (Robyn, Alphabeat,
Hanson, Pink, Kelly Clarkson, etc.). I'm not sure what those three
have in common.
Food: I have very bad eating habits. As in, I eat the same as I did
when I was seven. So no vegetables, almost no fruits, nothing
that's not processed or microwaved or frozen or all three. Mainly I
eat mac n' cheese, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches,
cheeseburgers, frozen pizzas and dessert. I expect to have a heart
attack very soon.
The six things I could never do without
Movies, comic books, sleep, regular showers, music, internet
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Taking a nap.
On a typical Friday night I am
At home alone, watching a movie or doing some work or watching a
movie for work.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
I have a lot of kinks and sexual hang-ups (including submissive
tendencies) that can make intimacy a little fraught with anxiety
for me. I'm working on it.
You should message me if
Man, I don't fucking know. If you can figure it out, please tell
me.
