About Me

Bay area native here. I'm about as "California" as "hella", hippies, and high gas prices... Seems to me that a lot of people talk more than they think. I like to think that I think more than I talk. Maybe a little too much sometimes. I also like to think that I'm good at everything I do but as it turns out that's usually just because I tend to not do very much. You might say I'm what's often referred to as an unmotivated genius. Actually I've never really been referred to as such but I figure if I put the word out, it might catch on. I'm turning 30 this year and I'm still not sure what I'm doing with the rest of my life. I am pretty sure though of what I'm doing with the rest of this week and it's looking like a good time. Last week was a good one too, so I'm pretty okay with it. Most people who know me think I'm a really nice guy and not selfish at all. Actually, I'm completely selfish, but it turns out that I really want to be a nice person, so I still get what I want, it's kind of a win, win... I feel like I just spilled a bunch of random thoughts into a blender and hit puree, but ya know, things always seem a little bit better when you mix them up a little...

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Yeah, so I'm always down to meet new people, those who love life and have a passion for it, creativity is a good thing. Preferably local people, like-minded people, those who would make my life more interesting and exciting and I'd hopefully do the same for them. Similar interests are good but so are those who would turn me on to new things. I like people who are passionate about life and what they do. That's partly because I'm not always that way but it tends to rub off on me from other people. Motivation and ambition work the same way. I like people who can be real, I'm a big fan of honesty. "If the truth hurts, you're only lying to yourself." On a lighter note, always looking for people to kick it with. Going to shows/bars/clubs/hiking/dinner/coffee/movies/yada yada yada. Actually, forget all that crap I just said, I'd be down to meet just about anyone new who's not a complete bore, and knows how to tie their own shoes...

When I make a movie (cause everyone should)

So every once in a while I come up with brilliant (in my mind) ideas that I think would be awesome to have in a movie. Of course most of these fade away with the setting into the wasted recyclin...

Miscelaneous Meanderings of my Misguided Mind

So I'm hanging out at the mall the other day (because YES, I do hang out at the mall. Nothing wrong with a 30 year old man hanging out at the mall once in a while. Actually I'm sure I was there for a ...

Trains

Faces fly by, seat to seat, car to car. Faster than my eye can see or my mind can recognize. Details blur and become like puzzle pieces. A nose here, eyes there, I spot a smile or is that ...

My fantastic evening at Not So Silent Night...

So I was writing this story to a friend and decided that it was definitely blogworthy... (every word is 100% true or at least as true as you can be when recalling a totally drunken evening) Went...

The Safeway Singles Scene (note the alliteration)

So I find myself today at the supermarket again, I'm not sure why. I hadn't been thinking I needed to go, nor was I lacking anything significant in the fridge at home. I was just driving b...

So you know what just pisses me off... all the people out there who just don't find the need to use the turn signals (aka, blinkers, indicators, those lights you sometimes see flashing on other ...
