Issuing supreme power to you...one moment.

My self-summary Propose an edit

One of my favorite words is 'perpetual.' I hate commuter traffic. I study moving image stuff, and the night sky fascinates me. Sometimes, I'm lame enough to do things like go bowling with my friends (if they ask nicely). I love flea markets and used book stores and always prefer reading an old dusty book over a new one.

What I'm doing with my life Propose an edit

Finishing grad school for my MA in media while working as an editor in the medical publishing industry. Exploring the arts of cameraless filmmaking, relaxing by playing the piano (not too well), reading through the horde of books in my apartment, and writing bullshit. I'm often watching movies, and going to the movies, sometimes by myself. A big part of my life is dedicated to caring for rescued horses.

I'm really good at Propose an edit

Making others laugh and offering them comfort. Even though I don't hold much patience for myself, I tend to have it for others, unless the situation's got something to do with computers. Vile machines.

The first thing(s) people usually notice about me Propose an edit

People compliment my hair a lot, which I think is a little strange.

The six things I could never do without Propose an edit

Laughter, celluloid, horses, affections, old books, the moon.

I spend a lot of time thinking about Propose an edit

The stars in the sky at night, who god(gods?) really is and will we ever have coffee someday, what it would be like to be a carbon copy of everybody else, what does loving someone really mean, can we really breech the space-time continuum, would I be happy living in an underwater colony, is it possible that flying pink dogdragon in Neverending Story really exists somewhere, am I really carbon-made or is there a soul inside, what would manning a flight to the moon be like, am I qualified to be Vice President?

On a typical Friday night I am Propose an edit

Catching a movie, playing Dork Band with friends, staying home to work on my research paper...it varies! I'm not a club person so if I end up home on a Friday night, I'm ok with it, but really nice company is always a big plus, no matter where you are.

The most private thing I'm willing to admit here Propose an edit

I'm a lot better at Rock Band/Guitar Hero than I really ought to be. But I don't really watch "Lord of the Rings," so the nerd meter ought to balance itself out, no?

You should message me if Propose an edit

You're a nice guy with enough of an edge to keep things alive. You can make me laugh and give nice hugs. You can appreciate people that aren't like everybody else.
