So I'm about to turn 30, I'm not really sure how I'm going to react to that...but so far its been a breeze. I still feel like I'm young, though I'll talk to someone who is lets say, 18, and I realize that I no longer really fit that group anymore. I'm an extremely loyal person. What I mean by that is once you have become a friend, you're now more of a family member than anything. I'd do anything for the people that are close to me and I'd hope they in turn would do the same. I love to discover new music, mostly by going to see the band play live if possible, but I still fall back on most of my favorites that never fail me. (I'll add on more to this later when it isn't in the A.M. hours)

After obtaining my BA in Anthropology from the University of New Orleans and then getting a certificate in Museum Studies from California State University: East Bay, I moved back to Louisiana. The backwoods thoughts and lifestyle that I grew up around is now something I can no longer stand and I've returned once more to the Bay. I'm currently the store manager of a local video game shop and I'm planning on returning to school for a MA sometime soon in the future.

Making friends with pretty much anyone. I have a great ability to talk with almost anyone I come across and be able to have them like me just off of our conversation. I'm good at sticking by my opinion even if I'm the only one that has that viewpoint. I'm pretty good at being sarcastic, being kind of dorky and everything else that comes with that title. I'm also excellent at making fun of my roomies - Ceramic1982 and PennyNickledime - they both take it like champs.

The first thing most people notice about me is that I have salt and pepper colored hair. My hair has been like this since I was a teenager and most people are amazed to discover that I have it. At first I didn't like my hair like this, though over time I great to not care if anyone thought it odd. And in fact, that proved to be the best, because most people tell me they actually like it.

Internet, friends, laughter, sleep and the ability to think for myself. Ok thats not 6 if you were actually counting, but whatever.

I spend a lot of time thinking about how people can be so stupid sometimes. How I have mad procrastination skills. How I can't stand the one sided views of so many of the so called leaders of my country. How people can be so blindly patriotic that they miss out on so much more. How people hate what they don't understand or whats different from them. I also spend a lot of time trying to figure out why Californians refer to the interstate as a freeway when it has the word "Interstate" right in the title. The "I" in I-80/I-880 does not stand for "freeway" people, come on!

Hanging out with friends playing video games, watching movies, having a few drinks and laughing away the night.

I miss the rain. It rains all the time back in Louisiana and almost never in the Bay. I miss the sound, I miss the feel, I miss the smell.

Anything in my profile interested you, made you laugh or you're just curious to know more. You want to start a fan club regarding just how awesome I am...or perhaps you want me to run the fan club that discusses just how great you are...whichever, I'm fairly open here.
