About Me

i enjoy doing geek things like pondering the economic structure of the city of metropolis and wondering how wolverine's healing factor effects his metabolism while i listen to rush. i also try to go out and have fun whenever i can now that i have a real job (note: "going out" does not necessarily mean going to loud places and knocking 10 points off of my IQ with alcohol, not that i don't do it every now and then). i like playing guitar and writing music relentlessly only to abandon my compositions without keeping a single recording just for sake of moving forward.
