About Me

I'm living in Rochester, trying to ignore the fact that I left age 18 in the dust several years ago. I'm coping with pseudo financial stability and the vices that come with it, such as easy access to fast food and what not. I have a tin full of change from fast food, occasionally I luck out and there are quarters in it. I can then use these quarters to play darts at BAR suchandsuch and afterwards, go get fast food and end up with more change... and the possibility of finding more quarters. It's quite a vicious cycle. I've got a bad case of wanderlust and do my best to drive someplace random on the weekends and take pictures with my impulse purchase of a digital camera. During the week I do alot (or try to do alot) of running around the area. Good weeks for me are about 20 miles, average is probably ~10-15. I try to be pretty randomtaneous.
