About Me

Highly neurotic, self loathing, misanthropic artist(yes, I know it's banal and cliche but there it is). Ok, ok, a little bit more....I can drink enough coffee in one sitting to kill three football teams and I say "fuck" more than New Jersey. There...... satisfied?

My Interests

Art(looking at it and making it), drinking shitloads of coffee, a freshly scrubbed ashtray shining with potential, reading my balls off, anything to do with World War 1, extreme weather phenomenon, coffee shops(Helios, baby!), dingy bars, people watching, spending money on shit I don't need, the steam from a fresh pot of joe, vintage pin-up illustrations, obsessing, girls who wear it over-not under, funking up my apartment, PBR, mustard, conspiracy culture, evil women in black fishnets and spike heels, being constantly amazed at my own stupidity, all kinds of geeky shite, architecture, watching the extra features on DVD's, hanging around.....
