I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I enjoy cold beverages and other things that are equally cool and refreshing. i write. i do lots of other stuff, and i do it as well as i need to, it's a good thing. I've got it covered.

My Interests

cold beverages, reading books, plays, shakespeare, greek drama, one act plays, pool, hackey sack, kung-fu movies, horror movies, incense, tea, anything that involves cold, running water, microbrews, pesto, harpischords, good music, writing, ghosts

I'd like to meet:

people whom after i have met, i could say "i'm a better person for having known them." i'd like to meet people who share some interests with me, and might have interesting things to discuss. also people involved in some kind of art. people who won't be offended by me using Dracula as a verb, and might have some liguistic innovations of their own. i like people who don't need a scene or a label or even a subculture to define themselves. Mostly, i mean interesting people. more honestly, i'm only really interested in people i know in real life, even if i only kinda know them. AIM - Sleepytimeslushy

Music:

Mogwai is probably my favorite. Subtle, The Decemberists, Sigur Ros, The Mountain Goats, Neutral Milk Hotel, Aesop Rock, Beck, other things that i happen to be listening to currently.

Movies:

Brazil, Attack the Gas Station, Mr. Vampire, The Life Aquatic, Sometimes i like shitty horror movies, other times, decent horror movies, other things i can't think of at the moment

Television:

Daily Show and Colbert Report. also futurama.

Books:

Catch 22, cat's cradle, Jurgen, illuminatus trilogy, any number of plays. Gregory Bateson, Umberto Eco

Heroes:

I don't really like the concept of having heroes, but the answer is anyone with the confidence and audacity to go after what they want, thats something i admire. unless they're a bastard.
