Obligerent? That sounds like it hurts.

About Me

I like pulling the throttle, shifting my feet against the rudders, and riding the wind down to a smooth landing. I like cutting through the air like a knife. I like it when the orchestra swells and Im left there with a dumb smile on my face. I love big laughs. I love small victories. My band doesn't suck, I promise.
I don't have a band, but if I did they wouldn't suck.
