About Me

I believe in substance over style. I love cats and dogs equally. I dislike being called Petey. I enjoy Watership Down by Richard Adams. If Fargo or The Big Lebowski is on TV, I have to put down what I'm doing and watch. I drive by cows every morning on my way in to work. It bothers me a bit when I get a haircut and people say to me "You got your haircut". I'm very picky in some ways and extremely careless in others. I'm always up for the playoffs or finals in pretty much any sport. I try to live my life in the moment and not get bogged down in the past or worried about the future. I'm not very successful at that, but I'm trying. I like the bongos and tapping on things. I work in broadcasting, but I don't like to define myself by what I do for a living. I have very wide and way-out tastes in music. I also like to make musical thingees. Please to sample (and befriend) here http://www.myspace.com/petercreighton
