I am unadulterated joy, battery acid, and non-sequitarian.

My Self-Summary

I'm an extremely svelte collection of atoms that, against the odds of nature, has somehow shaped itself into the form of a human being. For the most part, I like to think I lead an inner life. I often find myself lost in thought or mentally outlining something I've realized, often at inopportune moments. I try to be somewhat humorous and easy going, but generally speaking I come off as a pretty intense individual to people who don't know me.

What I’m doing with my life

I work in an office for the government. My short term career goal is to pull off a Fedora without looking funny. My long term career goal is to improve the way government executes the tasks assigned it by congress. For the most part everything I needed to know I learned from Gordon Ramsey, even though none of that was about cooking. But really, in any organization, whether you're running a Kitchen or administering benefits to millions of people, you have to take care of the simple things before doing anything else will get you anywhere.

I’m really good at

VIDEO GAMESSSSS wait stop don't click the back button

I'm not really sure what I'm good at other than that though that makes sense to express on a dating website. I've spent a great portion of my life, purely on accident, training myself to be a rather excellent bureaucrat. For instance, I'm astoundingly good at writing correspondence and understanding reasoning that makes little to no sense.

The first things people usually notice about me

Generally speaking my eyes are the first thing someone notices. Some people find them to be piercing but I haven't really figured out why or how to control that. I also have a voice that for some reason calms severe agitation about half the time, at least if I'm working at it.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

Right now I am trying, with great reluctance, to slog through the literary quagmire that is Finnegan's Wake. Whenever I am just about to give up I read something that seems both really poetic and terribly dirty and so I keep punishing myself.

I don't really watch a lot of movies or television. I watch sports sometimes, but frankly once this football season is over I think I am just going to drop my cable subscription entirely.

The six things I could never do without

Number one is going to be eyesight. Smell and taste? Take it or leave it, but vision is key.

When I tried to go camping as a boy scout I quickly discovered that indoor plumbing is another thing I can't really do without. Call me a snob, but I kind of like to think that a college degree does mean that I should never have to dig a hole in the ground and do my business.

There's also the internet. I can be without it for a little while but honestly every other form of communication feels like it takes so much more effort, especially if you're trying to make connections with strangers who share similar interests.

But really I can't think of six things in total that if push came to shove that I really couldn't do without, excepting those things that you can't do without either as a human being with cognitive functions, e.g. oxygen, food, etc.

I spend a lot of time thinking about

that thing i just said. I'm a man of action! I am frequently worried about becoming a hipster on accident. A good friend of mine once told me that I should become one because I would make the perfect hipster. At least I think they are a friend of mine~

Also why is a colon called a colon when it is really a double dot?

On a typical Friday night I am

Reading a book, going to a bar, hanging out with friends, playing vidya games on the intrawebs, and generally trying to relax after a long work week.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

My favorite line in Finnegan's Wake appears on page eight.

"Sexcalibur hrosspower."

Sexcalibur is pretty self explanatory, at least as Joyce goes. "hrosspower" is a combination of horse power and the German word for steed.

You should message me if

You want to be the Nora Barnacle to my James Joyce.
