About Me

....
It's so simple
Yes, I'm a simple man. I grew up all over the south, from Georgia(12 yrs) to North Carolina(7 yrs) to South Carolina (3 yrs). I moved to Jacksonville, Florida almost ten years ago, and I have been proud to call it my home. My next adventure is moving to the Bay Area (Oakland/San Francisco, CA). I am a gi-normous music nerd, and I always have been. I love going to parties, nightclubs, shows, and concerts. I'm a total political lefty, but rapidly tire of trite "Bush Sucks" sentiments that offer no real solutions. I am an Atheist, which helps me sleep better at night. I love learning about History, and the roles of Politics and Religion in shaping where we are today. I enjoy Color and Design in many contexts, primarily Fashion and Interiors. I collect vintage ties and "mandanas". I enjoy dancing and partying like a 'tard. I'm gay, but I find gay culture abhorrent, tacky and insulting. I'm a darn good speller. I take more naps than the average house cat.

My Interests

music, music, music, friends, fast food, freebies, vintage clothes, interior design, color theory, op art, being a smart-ass, being a dumb-ass, gossip, breaking bones, puppy-training, going to shows, meeting people, making up cruel nicknames for perfectly nice people, good conversations, drinking with friends, dancing with strangers

I'd like to meet:

I always enjoy meeting new people, as I am a very social creature. If you are in a band I don't already hang out with, hit up my DJ page instead of this one. If we have anything in common, or if you've seen me around and want to be friends, send me a message. If you think I'm sexy, and you want my body... come on baby, let me know.
