About Me

My StumbleUpon Page
Once again I step foot
On shifting sand,
But before nights end,
I'll take your hand.
And again, I blindly acquiesce
To your take,
As we lie watching madmen
Drown in consequential fate.
~ by Kenny Ball 2007

**DISCLAIMER* Guys: If you don't consider the eroticism of intelligence, then don't even bother contacting me. I can guarantee you we will NOT mesh. And if you are just looking for someone to stick your protruding parts in, buy a "pocket p*ssy." They require a little less emotional investment than I do.**

I needed to change this up a little. I may have been giving the mistaken impression that I have it all together when truly I don't. But I make every effort to enjoy life to its fullest, though I don't have all the answers. Most enjoyable activities to me: eating, sleeping and sex. I'm not going to mince words and say otherwise. I don't like to play games. If I feel something, I'm going to let you know. If I am confused or curious, I'm going to ask questions. I always expect others to be the same. I don't know why I am disappointed when they are not. I get bored easily; I love learning something new; listening to the stories of people I have just met. I imagine that my enthusiasm bowls some over. My heart races and my body belies the intense energy I feel through such interactions.
I like to run and jump and envelop myself in all aspects of life. I have many acquaintances; very few friends. Likely due to the fact that I can be an asshole, and I do not possess that internal filter that tells you when you are being inappropriate. But I think about all of you. I really do. Even if I don't call or write.
I'm one of the few pricks left that smoke and actually enjoy it. Okay, I am addicted and I know it and don't need to be reminded how bad it is for me. I went to college, thank you. I LOVE music; it makes me feel alive. But don't expect me to know the latest Indie bands. I prefer people to let me know what's out there. Don't let that statement fool you; there isn't much I leave up to others.
I get perverse pleasure from watching documentaries about murderers, rapists, prisons, little people and taboos. I make out with my cat; he adores me. Books are a passion that I will make excuses to spend money on that I don't really have. I want to believe in a higher power, but so far the lack of faith rules that out for me. I stay up waaay too late; I keep trying to find a good sleep cycle but so far have not been successful at it.
I dabble in art and poetry though I'm not very good at either. Sometimes I'm so mushy I want to vomit but most of the time I am more of a cynical realist. I don't always take criticism well, though I am working on it. You're not likely to scare me. There isn't much I haven't already heard or tried myself.
And in spite of all that, I still find the time to be a big goofball! :)

Artists. Free thinkers. Young, nubile guys whose bodies and minds I can explore at my whim. Individuals that enjoy indulging in the pleasures of the body and mind but can still exhibit some stability. PEOPLE. How about friends? :) Unique individuals. Animal lovers. Crazy people. Intelligent people, sweetly sarcastic people, people that want to commiserate or laugh together. I tend to gravitate towards younger people~don't know why, but that is not written in stone. Okay...I don't much care for rednecks, ignorant individuals or conservative republicans. I gotta have some standards.

Music:

80's and 90's, older club/house music, pop, rock, some rap, some alternative~anything but country.

With that said, I'm also a sucker for big budget action movies ~ Awesome fight scenes, special effects and things being crashed and/or blown up make me happy! :)Transformers, Disturbia (MAJOR crush on Shia Lebouf- shut up!), Live Free and Die Hard, Lord of the Rings, Gladiator, War of the Worlds, Titanic, Lethal Weapon, Training Day. Anything that Jerry Bruckhemier produces! I love testosterone!
