My Self-Summary

Hiya! I'm Tom. I like to write, play guitar, and sing alt-rock classics loudly and badly. I enjoy the simple things in life. I'm a dreamer. I'm not in a hurry to grow up. I'm smart and passionate, agreeable yet quirky. I have an outlandish sense of humor and I gravitate toward funny, lighthearted people. I'm chained to a computer for work-related purposes. More than anything, I'd like to become a published author someday.

What I’m doing with my life

What I do is discover things. Life is a mystery that ought to be explored, so I spend a lot of time looking around in wonder saying "wow that's cool," and "neato!" I'm easily distracted by shiny objects, robots, and any machine that shoots lasers or plays music. I have a bachelor's degree in computer science. I work for a software startup. Yes, now your suspicions are confirmed: I am a nerd.

I’m really good at

I'm good at making people laugh at me, and sometimes with me. I'm a good listener and a good friend.

I'm semi-creative and although I'll never be like Faulkner, I'm a decent writer. I'm also handy with a screwdriver and socket wrench in case you need your RAM upgraded or your oil changed.

The first things people usually notice about me

I can be a little shy at times, so I'm not easy to get at first glance. People usually know me to be personable, agreeable, articulate, and when the situation calls for it, brave.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

I prefer light and funny books, like Breakfast of Champions--that book made me laugh out loud repeatedly. I also like classics such as Catch 22, The Picture of Dorian Gray, The Catcher in The Rye, The Hobbit, 1984...

As far as movies are concerned, I like surreal or comedic, preferably both. I'm a huge fan of directors Terry Gilliam (Brazil), Jean-Pierre Jeunet (Amelie), Tim Burton (Beetlejuice), and David Cronenberg (Existenz).

Music: I can't live without it. My tastes vary from year to year. Right now I'm loving alt rock, post-punk, trip-hop, and industrial lately. Joy Division, Skinny Puppy, Bjork, Nine Inch Nails, Clan of Xymox, Jesus and Mary Chain, Stone Roses, Nirvana, Alice in Chains. Trust me, I could go on...

I love all kinds of food and will try nearly anything once. My favorites are Thai, Mexican, pizza, burgers, or sometimes just a simple salad and loaf a bread at home.

The six things I could never do without

Friends and family first and foremost. Also, lately I'm stuck to my guitar. I also have a notebook with me constantly. (You never know when inspiration will strike.) I'd also have trouble living without Mexican food. Oh... and coffee!

I spend a lot of time thinking about

I'm a bit of a dreamer. During downtime when I'm just by myself I think about life, love, music, food, and our daunting yet amazing planet.

And I could really go for some waffles or something right about now, couldn't you?

Love. And sex. "Ewww gross," right? I'm a boy, so what do you expect?

On a typical Friday night I am

I'm easily amused and just like simple fun. On your average Friday night I'm usually kickin' it old school with my pals, either at home or out on the town. Nothing beats solving all the world's problems from behind a beer or two. I'm prone to restlessness, so I like having someone drag me out of the house on the spur of the moment.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

I'll admit essentially everything, although if you want to know something specific you'll just have to ask. :)

I have little to no shame. Sometimes I play guitar whilst naked. It's weird.

I like to cuddle. Yeah... don't think many boys do, let alone would admit to it.

Oh, and sad songs invariably make me cry. With tears.

I have a mystical fascination with the southwest, and kreteks. I'm not a smoker, but every once in a great while...

If you want a full list of all of my faults, message me and I'll be happy to oblige. Hey, it helps to know up front eh?

You should message me if

...you want to use me to get to my hot friend.
...you think life is fun.
...you have a fetish for people named Tom.
...you are funny and love to laugh at your own stupid jokes and bad puns.
...you're confident and cheerful.
...you can put up with moody semi-creative types.
...you need help with your physics homework.
...you don't have a compelling reason not to. (Double negative!)
