I reached for the stars and one bit me.

About Me

Sometimes I act like a monkey.I recently started playing the violin and I have a long, long, long, long, long, long way to go, but some day I plan on being this good:

My Interests

Monkeys, surfing, piano, violin, teaching little children, sketch, improvisation, working on my "infectious laugh."

I'd like to meet:

Gilda Radner. Boy was she funny.

Music:

Trans-Siberian Orchestra

Movies:

The Mummy and The Mummy Returns. That's all I watch. Ever.

Television:

Grey's Anatomy...but the podiatrists are severely underrepresented on that show.

Books:

A Tree Grows in Brooklyn. That's all I read. Ever.

Life

Yesterday I ran over a portion unset asphault sealant and basically added a layer of road to my front left tire. By the time I got to the shop to get it fixed, the tire had picked up trash as well, si...

Love comes in green

I'm not sure when it happened, or how it started, or why; but at some point in the last six months I've grown to love avocados. I put them on everything except my waffles, which I still eat completely...
