I couldn't drink enough to make all this make sense, but I think I'm gonna give it a try.

About Me

I'm about to be thirty years old. I have four dogs named Biko, Mandela, Haggis, and Mungo. I'm dating a grown-up boy that few are allowed to call Skippy. I have parents that are old and that I love very much. I will never live up to my father's expectations, but will die trying. I write when my self-doubt doesn't interfere. I'm clumsy and I fall down a lot. I play softball even though I'm old. I spend most of my free time reading or saving puppy dogs. I eat chicken only because Skippy tells me I need to.

My Interests

Boogers (although not other peoples, they gross me out), entertaining my friends, obsessing about my dogs, boring stuff like music, movies, and comic books, volunteering to save puppies (because I'm a big fat nerd), laughing at funny things, going places, seeing things, and just being uptight.

I'd like to meet:

Batman, Richard Nixon, David Bowie, and the whore down the street who gives out my phone number as a reference at the clinic.

Music:

I love music and I've filled my iPod with many great things. If I had to delete everything but could choose just twenty musicians, they would be; David Bowie, Bob Dylan, Gomez, Rufus Wainwright, Peter Gabriel, Travis, Old 97's, BRMC, Beth Orton, Natalie Merchant in any form, Rolling Stones, Paul Simon, Willie Nelson, Ryan Adams, Wilco, Spoon, Stereolab, The Bee Gees, Devotchka, and of course Yo La Tengo.

Movies:

I like zombie movies, and am starting a worldwide campaign to prove that zombies can procreate. Please join me.

Television:

I don't have time to watch TV and normally it's on CNN, but I DO TiVo quite a bit (how did I ever live without it?). Here's what's on my current season pass list: Anderson Cooper (AC 360 for you crackers in the know),Daily Show, Jimmy Kimmel Live,Scrubs, The Office, all varieties of Law and Order, The Simpsons, Reno 911, the first person to send me a message that they've read this and they too like CNN gets a present, City Confidential, Grounded For Life, Forensic Files, American Justice, Degrassi (shut up), and anything with Mo Rocca.

Shawn's version of me:

Books:

The only time that I have to read is in the crapper or during the summer. I'll read anything by Neil Gaiman, Chuck Palahniuk, Douglas Coupland, David Sedaris, Nick Hornby, Dave Barry, Michael Chabon, and Tom Wolfe (again, shut up.)

Heroes:

Batman and the man who invented toilet paper.
