1. You are doomed. You probably don't think so, but you are, so you should relax, life is strange and zombies abound.

2. You can do a lot worse, so keep reading.

Kallisti. I really can't labor under the false pretense of normality. I have my own style and I like who I am. I am a 28 year old college student and I work full time in health care. I'm a non-fist-shaking vegetarian]. I'm petty laid back and I enjoy hanging out with all kinds of different crowds and types of people.

I love baking and cooking. I make my own ice cream, bread, and pasta. I am constantly on the look out for new restaurants or new types of food to try, I am a major foodie. I also do a lot of computer programming, case modding, and cough*andIplayabitofvideogamesfromtimetotime*cough. I am an avid reader and a bit of a book snob (only a bit though). I work out often and I like running. I play ice hockey regularly, I play center (#42) for the Fairfax Avalanche. Don't worry I am not a hockey douche, I will not knock up your Bristol Palins. I am a big time Caps fan.

I'm pursuing a BS in Computer Science, but don't hold your breath, at the rate I am going I'll finish three days after the sun implodes and brilliantly terrible rays of radiation scorch the earth.

Sass, programming, cooking, massage, inane fact retention, pointless arguments & lawyering, ice skating, and making coffee.

They usually don't notice me, there are Wayne people and there are Garth people...I am Garth people, I made my choice, I'm comfortable with it. I'm not a social dud or anything, I just don't strive to be the center of attention and I am bit shy, but I would say that I'm worth getting to know. I am the carpet bomber of truth, don't ask questions that you don't want to hear the answer to.

Some of my favorite restaurants in the area are Anita's, Saravana Palace, Sunflower, Cork, and Zaytinya.

Philosophically I think there is nothing I could never do with out...but I am just being a smart ass, in keeping with the implied intent of the query the top six: 1. PUPPY-RECOGNIZE! 2. Pancakes 3. Books + Coffee 4. Hockey 5. Chuck Taylors 6. Bed, seriously I am fantastic in bed, I can sleep all day and all night ^_~.

Ways to make my life better. Which is worse the heat-death of the universe or the eternal “big-crunch/big-bang” cycle? Zombie survival scenarios. What would Neil Patrick Harris do? How do you go on like a blister in the sun? Kitty Foreman.

"His scorn of the gods, his hatred of death, and his passion for life won him that unspeakable penalty in which the whole being is exerted toward accomplishing nothing. This is the price that must be paid for the passions of this earth." The Myth of Sisyphus, Albert Camus

Stick-n-Shoot at Kettler or Mt. Vernon.
At a Caps game (SEASON TICKETS!!! :))
Or getting mildly fuzzy and doing some karaoke at Patriots.

I don't generally shave unless I am going on a date or otherwise impress a lady. Shaving, like dating, is for chumps!

I don't really have any shame. Well a little, and you know it's bad if I'm ashamed of something I did.

You've bothered to read this far. You want to use me to survive the zombie apocalypse until I outlive my usefulness. You want to. You want to use me to get a date with Puppy. You like stuff. AOL/Yahoo IM: ryanbruun, or you can google me (not an innuendo) ryan.bruun.

...you want to eat my delicious brains....
