I am zesty, delicious, and fat-free.
My Self-Summary
I'm a wanderer (actually, I am currently in the process of being on
the move again, we'll see how this goes). I move a lot and used to
travel more often. Something I especially enjoy doing is watching
people. There's a lot you can learn just by observing people go
about their everyday activities. Everything else I know has
probably come from books.
I'm also pretty opinionated. I'm a vegetarian and pretty liberal,
but I also like to remain as open minded as possible. Intelligent
debates are always more important than bullying, however lofty its
pretense.
What I’m doing with my life
I love to create. Now all I have to do is figure out how one makes
money at being creative. I think I'm closer to figuring this out
than I have been in the past, but it's a big struggle.
I’m really good at
Talking. Memorizing useless pop culture trivia. Other things that
wouldn't do me much good in the wild.
I've heard I'm a pretty good leader too, but outside of music I
don't get many opportunities to test this. I'm very interested in
how people work, though, what drives them, what their motivations
are. I think that communications break down so often because people
get an image of who they're dealing with rather than actually
paying attention to the details.
The first things people usually notice about me
I'm not Jason Schwartzman. I kid. I've been told that my
personality is what people notice first, I can be pretty outgoing,
even though I don't notice that as much.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
I'm a voracious reader, and listener, and watcher. Not so much with
the food, though.
It's best to ask me about this, but for books I've been on a
post-modernist kick for a while, particularly anything by Jonathan
Lethem and I'm also very into all things Denis Johnson. Musically,
I'm all over the place. I love hip-hop, indie rock, Cambodian
garage rock, garage rock period, experimental music, classic
country, punk, post-punk, post-post-punk (harhar), etc.
The six things I could never do without
A guitar, access to a library, pen and paper, and then the usual
food, oxygen, water, that sort of thing.
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Projects I'm working on, scripts and music mostly. I daydream and
space out a lot and when that happens, usually I'm planning out
things I'd like to be working on, given the proper time and
resources.
On a typical Friday night I am
Sadly, probably indoors watching a film. But I do go to shows
pretty often when I can. The economy has put a damper on that,
though.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
I have totally failed to live up to my childhood dream of being a
superhero. Kid me would be so disappointed.

You have a sense of humour and don't mind the occasional
long-winded rant.
