I am scrappy, neurotic, and weisenheiming.

My Self-Summary

I would describe myself as a spunky young go-getter with a head for books who won't hesitate to give you what-for! But that would be weird. So i won't do that.

Instead I'll say that I never wear matching socks, that I have a fairly impressive collection of cheap ,garish costume jewelry as well as a consortium of over-sized, irregular boxers. I believe tortoises are the most underrated pets. I have oddly dexterous toes that i just know will get me out of some near-impossible jam someday (maybe something involving a mountain lion and a mysterious jewel-thief). I read quite a bit. I sleep never. And I love obscure words, phrases, or etymological facts.
If any of this piques your interest then you probably don't have a lot going on right now. Which is good! Send me a message and maybe we can be awkward and boring together sometime.

What I’m doing with my life

Working. Schooling. Eating. Breathing. Procrastinating. The Dirty Dancing Work-Out video.

I’m really good at

Collecting unnecessary things.

I spend a lot of time thinking about

What it would be like to go laser tagging with T.I. and John Stuart Mill.

On a typical Friday night I am

Out attempting to reclaim my youth but secretly wishing to be in bed watching Golden Girls reruns.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

Sometimes, when I'm alone I like to get naked and do the truffle shuffle.

You are not a sociopath.
