About Me

I love forming pleasing combinations of words. I like reading things that take a little energy to interpret. This means I like writing and reading. I'm into cooking, but I don't read recipes.. I experiment. I'm apt to weird people out with my tangents, which usually involve what-if scenarios that could never actually happen. If you play along I'll probably like you because I'm very easily amused. I steer clear of anything that unnecessarily complicates anything. Other than that I think I'm kind of simple for a human.

S'mores, espresso, the horizon
