I am here for Friends

About Me

I'm not the last person to have a myspace page, I swear! I'm pretty sure that my mom doesn't have one. Does your mom have one? Your grandma? Didn't think so. So I'm really not the last one! So...yeah. I currently live in northwest Iowa where I coach a high school debate team (*cough*state champs*cough*) while looking for a job not dealing with food. It's a tough world out there...but I may as well dream big, right? Hah!

My Interests

Music, movies, literature, philosophy, art, blah blah blah... I like lots of stuff, just like everybody else.

I'd like to meet:

Interesting people that don't creep me out. Do you plan on creeping me out?

Music:

Where to start....Umphrey's McGee, Radiohead, Tool, Nine Inch Nails, Phish, TV on the Radio, Squarepusher, Aphex Twin, Venetian Snares, Ween, Yo la Tengo, Primus, Muse, LCD Soundsystem, !!!, Joy Division, Neil Diamond, Grateful Dead, David Bowie, The Band, Death in Vegas, Tom Waits, Fugazi, Gomez, King Crimson, Talking Heads, Kyuss, The Flaming Lips, The Crystal Method, Bjork, Beck, Air, Underworld....these are the artists that first come to mind. I could go on for days. Seriously.

Movies:

Do I have to go through this whole listing thing again? I like movies. Lots of movies. I suppose if you REALLY want to know, you can ask me.

Television:

I don't watch TV. Except for Heroes, which is freakin' awesome. I suppose I also really enjoy things like Futurama and Aqua Teen. Adult Swim and whatnot.

Books:

Again with the listing! I love to read. I read everything. Chuck Palahniuk, Irving Welsh, Mark Danielewski, John Irving, Chuck Klosterman, Salman Rushdie, Jack Kerouac, Toni Morrison....again, I could go on and on....

Heroes:

You. Did I ever tell you that you're my hero?

My Blog

Live And Learn, Ladies. Not on my Friends List? Read This Anyway!

It’s kinda funny how the two people I would really like to read this aren’t even on my friends list.  I never did anything to either of them, but if you ask them, I’m probably o...

It’s March. Again.

You may or may not know of my aversion to the month of March.  It's typically when the shit hits the fan in my life...lots of not good things have happened to me during the Marches of the past.&n...

New Year’s Blog

Well, it's that time of year again.  The beginning!  I should have put this up yesterday, at the end, but I was busy doing other fun things.  I'm not going to do any lists...I'm not goi...

A New Era in Blogging

My blogs have been...childish for the last few postings.  I got wrapped up in some high school type drama, and it drew me off into a few tangents more prone to a sixteen year old than me.  I...

Karma, The Golden Rule, A Comeuppance

I don't feel guilty anymore, I don't feel sorry for her.  I feel like karma has truly worked out in this instance.  It came back to bite her in the ass, and I didn't have to do a single thin...

I Really Want to Hate You....

No, not you.  You're a friend.  Why would I want to hate a friend?You on the other hand...you're not interested in being friends.  I try, I reach out, I could be your friend.  You'...

I Guess I’m an Independent Contracter Now

Horray!  I've got a job!  Kind of.  I'm going to be a researcher for a local museum project. Patience pays off, I guess.  It's a good thing! Yay!

Maybe I’m not pissed off enough

I've been living here for a little over a year now.  I moved back on August 1, 2006.  It wasn't the easiest thing I'd ever done, but it was what I needed at the time.  I've been hanging...

Something is Seriously Wrong With Me

I wake up every morning and I'm sick.  Now your first response is probably going to be the same as his...no, I'm not pregnant.  That's the one thing I know it isn't.  I feel like I'm br...
