Listen. Seriously. I've recently been paying attention to Yo La Tengo's

come to the conclusion that I really should have been paying
attention since the day I saw Janeane Garafalo introduce
"Sugarcube" on
MTV. That was a really good day, but the network has only gone
downhill since Kennedy left.

My Notes edit
My Self-Summary
What I’m doing with my life
I graduated with a Bachelor's in creative writing from Ball State
University. Unsurprisingly, I'm not making a living with that
degree.
I am, however, scrounging a living with some freelance graphic design, but that's mostly layout. I don't make the art, I make it look good in a brochure.
I also work for a Web design/online marketing firm.
On top of that, I write for a geeky public radio blog.
On top of that, I write (what I think is, at best, passable) poetry.
On top of that, I'm a singer-songwriter. You could probably guess that I don't really have time to play out much, but I'll play whatever show I'm asked to play. Especially if I get paid.
Also, I just shaved off my beard. I feel naked. And cold. So cold.

Poetry.
Reading poetry.
Breaking things.
Trivia.
Balancing pretention with accessibility.
Singing the Powerpuff Girls theme song while sprinting to the rescue.
Elaborate, slow, but thorough dish-washing.
Irrelevant cultural references.

I spend a lot of time thinking about
On a typical Friday night I am
Early evening, I've fallen asleep watching "The West Wing" or "Mad Men." After that, I'm
awake and drinking another cup of coffee and playing guitar
while waiting for
something to start happening. Fridays are my relaxed, creative, and aloof days.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
I don't watch TV. It's not a political thing, it's that I cry at
bad TV and sappy commercials.
