About Me



I like to watch...I am a constant observer. For me, life is in the small details, like the way you inflect your speech when you say certain words or sounds, the fact that your shoes are always clean, or the scene going on behind you when I am sorely pretending to listen. Though I'm usually good at being a listener. I am analyzing the situation. I am synchronizing my thoughts with your energy. Or...contemplating my grocery list. Sometimes I really feel like I am, or that I come off as umm...mentally challenged.

Sometimes I feel this sense of melancholy that will not go away until I hole myself up and translate it into words on paper.
I aspire to be more aware than I already am.
