I don't know where in blue hell those awards down there come from. More Political? I don't care if stem cells get gay married and have abortions- I really don't. You let me do my thing, and I'll let you do your thing. I didn't realize that wanting to be left alone was a political movement.

I somehow managed to find/purchase TWO Dictaphones today. I have no idea what I'll do with them, but I'm stoked.

My apartment looks like Fritz Lang and Dr. Frankenstein exploded in here and I like it that way.

Being a cog in the great bureaucratic machine.

Damage Control. Analyzing everything, Trivial Pursuit, trivial pursuits, doing research, tying knots, building things that catch fire, Scrabble, using my hands; being a dude. Coming up with offensive word combinations. Fixing stuff, Bullshitting and Having Charisma.

I'm one of the few suits at my agency with clearly visible tattoos.

I'm kind of anal retentive about random things- there seems to be no rhyme nor reason to my retention.

I usually look pissed off, but I laugh easily.

I have most of my shit together.

I'm kind of anachronistic.

I like risotto, gelato, gyros, coffee flavoured anything, root beer barrels, Strawberry jam, Cheeseburgers, mushrooms, and basically anything you have to buy from a cart.

A hole to hide in, Airs 'Rain' incense, good music, and a healthy mix of being solitary and socializing.

Also Miniature Golf.

Also X-TREME Miniature Golf (As above, but wearing a helmet)

Non-sequiturs (The literary kind). Time. How to put a swamp on a mountain. Building a straw-bale house and raising alpacas.

Usually just relaxing, getting mentally prepared for whatever asinine side-quest I find myself on over the weekend.

I generally have no idea what I'm doing.

You like listening to old music in the dark. We have something in common. We don't have EVERYTHING in common.
