...You've found a harmless, polite occupation for every genius who might have carved his own niche.

About Me

I love coffee, canoeing, and starting dance parties in dive bars. I miss bonfires and going camping. But I love going out on the town. And I have the best friends a girl could ask for. Who I want to be in life is becoming less and less connected with what I want to do.
