I am well-behaved, housebroken, and free to good home.
My Self-Summary
If you want "different", you just found it.......though, whether or
not you'll like it remains to be seen.
I'm not here to spew mindless drivel, because quite frankly, you
the reader deserve better than to hear me state that I "like to
have fun". Instead, how about some self-expression and what should
hopefully be a little entertainment.
First, I need you to bring to mind all the things that one might
normally associate with an individual living in the mid-south.
Then, take most of that and throw it away. I'm a somewhat
enlightened half-ass intellectual, a free spirit, and a wary, but
still friendly lone wolf. I say don't stop at just thinking outside
the box, jump outside of it and set the damn thing on fire. Among
all the things I possess, the most invaluable would be open eyes,
open mind, integrity, and a sense of humor.
In the end, I'm "just me" *gag*. Because hey, if I wasn't.....I'd
be someone else......and I'm almost certain they'd have better shit
to do than this.
What I’m doing with my life
Clutching to the frayed ends of my sanity, whilst redefining what
it means to be patient.
"I don't know where I'm going, but I can't wait to get there"
I’m really good at
-
communicating
- maintaining clear thinking when it's most needed. If the shit
hits the fan, I'm convenient to have around.
- laying down a groove on drums
- wielding a machete with an authority that would make Jason
Voorhees do a double-take. I so totally shit thee not.
- being quite possibly the only person with the ability to tell you
specifications for old-ass farm equipment, recite part of "The
Raven", tell you what a dreamcatcher is, and say the word in
Ojibwe
....and, for a good slap in the face of modesty.....
- being able to do more pull-ups than anyone I know
The first things people usually notice about me
My money is on the shaved head. There's also the fact that I have a
totally f**king different mindset than most in this part of the
country.
Speaking of noticing, I'm sure few, if any, will notice I just
censored something and intended for it to be amusing. Nobody stops
to think that leaving nothing to the imagination takes all the fun
away.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
I'm primarily a nonfiction kind of person. The Tibetan Book of
Living and Dying is certainly a favorite, and I'm likely to be seen
browsing the "New Age" section at a Barnes & Noble. Logical as
I may be, things like cryptozoology, the paranormal, and matters of
spirituality are a break from the sickeningly mundane.
As for film, I can definitely say that horror is my bread and
butter. However, I appreciate all genres; Inglourious Basterds and
9 are some recent favorites. As far as an all-time fav goes, I'll
go with Mad Max. It's a rather sad story; I particularly dig the
justice/vengeance aspect of it.
Some favorite tunes:
"Ordinary World" - Duran Duran
"I Don't Mind" - Drain STH
"The Idol" - W.A.S.P.
"Throw It Away"- Toby Rand
"Everything About You" - Ugly Kid Joe
"The Past" - Sevendust
"Little Suzi" - Tesla
"Edie(Ciao Baby)" - The Cult
The six things I could never do without
1)contacts(going around squinting at shit isn't cool)
2)being able to keep my body and teeth clean
3)a razor
4)some form of exercise
5)conversation with fellow souls of
depth
6)
art to move me
As long as I can have all of that, I will honestly go live in a
barn and be thankful for what I have.
I spend a lot of time thinking about
- what sort of brain-damaging shit people do that makes them tYpE
lYkE dIs
- how I would absolutely love to use a taser on people that won't
TURN THE GODDAMN CAPS LOCK OFF
- the disturbing fact that so many find flag burning to be more
offensive than book burning. It's called Fahrenheit 451, read
it......ya blind, book-burning bastards.
- the deal with cats and doors. Seriously. Show me a door, and I
guaran-damn-tee I can show you a cat with unsettling concern for
what may lie on the other side of it.
- "every negative emotion stems from fear"
- impermanence, attachment, dreams, life experiences, and a great
deal of things
spiritual or existential
On a typical Friday night I am
Building a big-ass wooden rabbit, which I will use to.......wait,
that's from a Monty Python film.
Seriously, I'm most likely trekking through extremely remote areas
of the Congo....in search of the legendary mokele-mbembe.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
Since living a few months on the Canadian border, I've become
almost snobby towards fellow southerners. *shrug*
Although I've been sober for nearly four years(thank you, thank
you), I don't mind being around others while they have a few.
However, if my girlfriend can't make the stairs fine later on....me
no put out.
On a more serious, personal note, I've come to not put much faith
in my fellow humans. The one person that stands unwavering almost
defiantly, and will never let me down, is..........me.
You should message me if
...you wanna hear about the time I killed a grizzly bear with a
loose-leaf notebook.
