About Me

i'm adventurous (like a bull in a china shop). i plan to do something revolutionary but... i'm a procrastinator. i never ask questions that i don't want to know the answers to. i always have good intentions.

My Interests

i'm going to have to simplify this into things i love and loathe...love: laughter, getting things in the mail besides bills, power tools, netflixs, interesting conversations, eavesdropping while people watching, driving cars or trucks or boats, public transportation, video games, inside jokes, impromptu dance parties, butterflies in my stomache, gambling, eating, surfing, swimming, sand, the grass in kentucky, long walks without crutches, riding my bike, sheer brilliance...loathe: smelly puddles in chinatown that are so toxic they glow, the exorcism of emily rose, rats, slut stamps, liars, bedbugs, scabies, mosquitos, and sleep depravation

I'd like to meet:

the person who has been tagging lower manhattan with "i love you". a smart boy who gets it. ok. truthfully, not only does he have to be smart it wouldn't hurt if he was also cute with a razor sharp wit and had good taste in music, books and movies.

ladies who lunch and monsters

i've been asleep for days. i would feel bad about that, but, i heard that sleep deprivation is cumulative. there's nothing like a little scientific information to help rationalize your imperfections. ...
