I am usually painfully cynical. I am 24 years old, going to be 25 soon. I work in a law office, although I technically work for myself. My work focusing primarily on civil rights, employment and criminal law. I love my job.

I tend to be very argumentative, nerdy, open-minded, compassionate, understanding and non-judgmental, well with some exceptions. I hate bigotry in all of its forms, be it racism, sexism or homophobia. I don't like when people feel the need to force their values upon other people. That doesn't mean I don't like opinionated persons, I actually get along with them better, but I don't like it when individuals go beyond expressing an opinion as to another's conduct/lifestyle to forcing a change (i.e. what the fuck is up with people's opposition to gay marriage, or mandating school prayer or placing the Ten Commandments in public places or opposing stores for placing Christmas decorations (its fucking Christmas, stop being a damned scrooge.)) So while I don't like being judgmental, I will judge judgmental people. In other words, to quote Bill Maher:

"Don't become so tolerant that you tolerate intolerance"

There is a lot of other things I can say about myself, but don't feel like typing anymore. So if you would like to talk to me, send me a message.

I go to school (although not regularly). Hoping to go to law school after my undergrad.

I own a legal consulting business. All of the time and motivation that I should spend on improving my life, finishing school and becoming a well-rounded human being, I spend at work.

being an incredibly argumentative and stubborn ass. I never shy away from a good argument, which tends to piss off lots of people around me, unless they like debating.

I am also a very good listener, love to try to help people with their problems and am pretty good at legal analysis.

My smile. I don't like it, but other people seem to.

Law, politics, religion, the meaning of life, my future, sex, relationships, my friends, how I can help the people around me. I think a lot.

Usually I am either at home watching re-runs of House and exchanging movie quotes with my brother. Or working and exchanging movie quotes with my brother.

I'm ADD.
