About Me

I love food.

Wawa at 1:00am. T-bell. Fruit snacks, especially the Brachs kind. Double T belgian waffle with meat. I love being kind of a gamer.

World of Warcraft, Battlefield 2, Gunz Online, and Civ 4. I love music.

Concerts. Mixed CDs. 212 gigs of glory on my hard drive. old worn out band shirts. my old job. smashing uncle kracker in a million tiny pieces. defacing jimmy fallon and j-lo displays. blaring less than jake while cleaning. I love books.

Hardcovers. 3 bookshelves overflowing. no particular order except that series are bunched together and sometimes I organize by something that could loosely be perceived as a 'genre'.
I love travel.

USA. 29 of them. bahamas. mexico. france. thailand.

My Interests

People. Parties. Drinking. Photography. Reading. Writing. Singing. Dancing. Loving. Laughing. Talking. Listening. Cooking. Eating. Shopping. My Life. My friends. My family.
