Dr. Science

Damnit... ...I should have donated my hair to science.

About Me

I really suck at opening packaged items. What kind of packaged items you might ask? Any kind of packaged item really, ketchup packets, candy packages, DVD's, CD's, mail, most fridgeratable items like cheese and lunch-meat and stuff. It doesn't matter how careful I am, especially if its a package that requires it to be re-sealed or mayhaps quasi-re-sealed.... ...I just seem to rip that fucker such that I render it unable to be re-sealed. Most times things just spill out everywhere when I open them. I guess I could say I'm good at opening things that don't need to be re-sealed, that is if I don't spill whatever item is in the package all over the place. Sometimes I wonder if this reflects upon my personel life at all, maybe I'm not so good at re-sealing things? Hmmmm. That requires careful thought I think, of course we all know that me trying to be careful results in coffee grinds all over my stove. I guess what I'm trying to say is, I don't cry over spilled milk... ...or something like that.

My Interests

No, this isn't pee... ...its the oil from ozone reacted eucalyptus tree leaves that was extracted with a supercritical fluid. Duh.

I'd like to meet:

I really want to create something beautiful with my life. I don’t want to build something beautiful or make something worth marveling at, I mean I want my life to reflect something completely intangible that is nothing but pure beauty. I have no idea what this really means in truth, I just want to say something, or do something that is purely spectacular. Its hard to say at this point in my life what exactly this thing will be, perhaps a contribution to science, or a great literary work, maybe it will be my children, or something I might say to my future wife, the fact is when I hear a song I like, or read a book that inspires me I feel better then I have ever felt before. This is the type of beauty I am after; if I can just make one person feel the way I do when I feel inspired then that will make me happy. So I’d like to meet a person who can appreciate something like that…

Time

So it seems days turn into weeks, weeks turn into months, and yes as you would guess, months turn into years. Time is a funny thing, even though commonplace thinking and your everyday average Joe migh...

A year and counting...

Well, as of about 7 days ago, I've been living in lovely Orange County, CA for a year. It seems odd, especially since I only lived in Chicago for a year and yet I still feel more connected there then ...
