Whoops. I'm not really responding to anyone at all right now. I'll
be back, I'm sure.
I'm a shitload of fun. Brash, loud, and forthcoming. Never afraid
to be the brunt of a joke, whether it's mine or others'. I pretty
much wear what I think about everything on my sleeve. In neon. With
a PA system attached.
But I can be one way socially and another way at home. I can be
very subdued and introspective at times. I mean, you've got to just
catch your breath sometimes.
That said, I can overthink anything. I'm trying not to do that so
much.
I
write for a
living. I love punctuation. I am fully aware of how nerdy that
is.
I like things that dorks like. I would not necessarily classify
myself as a
dork,
though. Maybe a little...
That personality test I took on this site doesn't quite know me. I
took it again, choosing differently on the questions that had poor
or vague wording, and it got even worse.

I'm working at a job I love furthering my newfound career, and
trying to just be myself. I am immersing my self in my friendships
and taking the advice of Al Swearengen to heart. Maybe keeping
myself a bit aloof.
Talking. Laughing. Making
grilled cheese
sandwiches, white pizza, turkey chili, and I swear I make the
best
beer brats
in the city. Or some of the best, at least. I like to have a good
time.
Karaoke is
fun, too. I shoulda been a rock star.
My voice, probably. From across the room.
My fine taste in impromptu pocket squares?
I liked The Cheese Monkeys, and also The Rule of the Bone.
Murakami. Neal
Stephenson is super fun when he doesn't get to didactic.
I love
Chinatown, and
Blade Runner, too.
Chris Walken movies. Early Guy
Ritchie.
Beatles Rock Band
is so awesome. So's regular
Rock Band.
I went to the
High On Fire/Converge/
Mastodon/
Dethklok show, and it would have
been so great if it hadn't been at the shitty Aragon.
Queens
of the Stone Age is a band to whom I can almost always listen.
The
Pixies as well.
And
Led
Zeppelin. Lots of things, really. Try me.
I want to go eat some
oysters. Right now. There's a little
French place I love in this town.
Hot Doug's is impeccable. And I
know of several places that make great
burgers.
Jesus, I sound so list-y in these boxes. I don't talk like this, I
promise.
First: Arbitrary Hierarchies
Second: Ordinals
Third: Some sort of way to get around more quickly than walking;
one of my
cars or my
bike
Fourth: I'm quite fond of my phone, except when it becomes too
demanding... maybe I should say I'm fond of my phone's power
button
Fifth: The Em-dash
Sixth: Delicious meats: bacon, steak, etc.
Weird things. Dorky
things.
Zombie
invasions is an example of both.
Out with good friends.
I'll think about that. I'm really open, but usually I'm better at
this kind of thing in person, or when prompted with a question.
You feel like it.
