I am contemplative, inquisitive, and amiable.
My Self-Summary
My favorite thing to do is to write self-summaries. They make me
feel as though I've accomplished something in my day, that may
change the course of the rest of the week. Tuesdays are usually my
SS (that's what I call it, it stands for Self-Summary) day, and I
start it off with a cup of
coffee or
tea. Depends on how my night went before.
Coffee and tea both do a good job at making me feel warm. Which is
why I keep them sufficiently heated before the consumption point
(or CP). After CP, I usually progress on with my daily
Navy...day. Which happens on a
regular basis. On average, approximately 7 days a week. As I think
about SS and CP, I then realize that I had just completed another
day of training to become an Combat Systems
Electronic Technician for
the
United States Navy, and
that I had just done it right outside of
Chicago, Illinois.
Well, that was the case until one day, I woke up and I was in San
Diego. Then I took a nap, and when I opened my eyes I just so
happened to have ended up in Norfolk, Va. Now everyday I open my
eyes expecting to be somewhere else, in
vain.
I also manage to be a
musician (
drummer), a
martial artist (
boxing,
Tae Kwon Do,
Muay Thai), a
Gamer (lots 'n' lots), a
Reader (tons 'n' tons) an
intellectual
(lol wut) and a
Bull Shitter (OkCupid
self-summaries). Overall it's a busy existence full of this and
that. And a bit of the other
thing.
What I’m doing with my life
Well, I water it. Feed it. Take it to the park. When it acts up, I
give it a stern talking to. Because I care. Tough love. When it's
being have, I take it out for ice cream and put put golf. It's
pretty deserving. It's paid it's dues. I mold it a lot, but most
times I just let it grow. Right now I've been exposing it to the
Navy a lot, not making it choose if that's the thing for it, but
giving it a chance to figure it out for itself. Most times we just
hang out. We don't talk a lot, but we're always thinking about one
another, and that's nice. It's nice to know it cares. Because I
care so much about it.
I’m really good at
Eating apples. Yesterday, I probably ate the whole damn thing. I
probably could have eaten more, but there wasn't any left because I
fucking ate it all.
The first things people usually notice about me
Human.
And for the mind readers, that I'm a huge hockey nerd.
And for the casually observant, that I'm a pretty decently
off-center nerd in general.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food

Moore. I'm also a huge fan of House of Leaves. Also many

The six things I could never do without
1. I'd like to start off by thanking
The Number System, without it,
this list would not have been possible.
2.
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Photons, causality, Love, Life, The Universe, and most of all,
everything.
Thinking is kind of my thing.
On a typical Friday night I am
Dismembering boredom in ways only I could have (sort of) thought
possible.
That being said, what are we doing this Friday?
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
