Holy Waffle of Wilford!

About Me

My feet have high arches and I get the worst sleep of anyone I know. I'll bring magic and sparkle to your life. I listen to music, (try) to play the bass, watch films, and (try to) take pictures. Photos are here , here , and here.

I miss Portland.

I enjoy killing hookers with my friend Tracey and then dumping their bodies behind the 7-11 in Billerica, MA, said activities followed by a nice wicked ham break.

I dislike cold toast, cold eggs, cold pancakes, cold waffles, and silly (in the bad way) girls. I once saw the face of Wilford Brimley on an Eggo(tm) waffle.

Could someone please tell me what assignment number 5 is?

My Interests

J: My mom used to drink Miller Lite. It's actually kind of refreshing.
Y: So is public urination, but that doesn't mean it's a good idea.

soccer, music, that happy place, film, fizzy lizzy lemon raspberry, widescreen, happy naughty fun play time, sangrias, panties, food and foodies, the tempurpedic bed of sterling castle, gionism, the lulu, documentaries, dahlias and zinnias, coke from a glass bottle, ghosts, my rack, hats, the 7-11 in billerica, pants for the assless brigade, cameras, r.i.p. quality pie, the erotica section at borders, cupcakes, marionberry jelly, the alarm system at urban outfitters, cemeteries, bathing on a daily basis, spooning, apostrophes, the sunday boston globe, milkshakes, battery operated devices, tambourines, turkey club sandwiches, joel gion, little films, graciousness towards hermaphrodites from new jersey, ham breaks, getting in that last word, pink eye shadow, purple ink, flowers in one's hair, horizontal stripes, being really nice when i shouldn't, new england revolution, happy naughty naked fun time, firearms, an assortment of lubricants, cookbooks, garden gnomes, best PMS ever, outlasting you, brussel sprouts, trixie belden mysteries, dead hookers in my trunk, kissing, too many damn cats, jamie schefer, adoring jamie, kissing jamie, pigtails, antiquated words, hello kitty, wilford brimley, anthony bourdain is my tv boyfriend, drummers, dancing with myself in every connotation of the phrase, volkswagens, the genius of ben stein, DIY triage, portland (the one in oregon), christmas lights up all year, strawberry smelling things, marcel duchamp, artsy creative things, efficient use of time, jury nullification, socks, subtitles, duct tape, my personal vendetta against Bruce Arena, shoes, peanut butter at the peanut free table, 20 percent tips, dental floss, oh wait he's gay, stars, tattoos, getting star tattoos, the night sky, ensuring karma

I'd like to meet:

I don't need to meet the "man of my dreams". I've already met him, so please don't flirt with me. It's just awkward and uncomfortable. Otherwise, I'd like to meet garden gnomes, groovy people, other Gionists, foodies, silly people, el chupacabra, smart people, refreshing people, oboe players (apparently, per the "sponsored links"), people who like film, music, or soccer, and creative sorts.

Music:

Joy Division, Mike Doughty, Soul Coughing, The Dilettantes, Bauhaus, The Who, Dandy Warhols, Camper Van Beethoven, Cracker, The Kinks, Forest Giants, The Catherine Wheel, Orbit, The Jam, The Pixies, The Last Resort, Minor Threat, Matthew Hattie Hein, Copperpot, Helmet, Cocteau Twins, Mogwai, The Beatles, Wolfgang Press, Lene Lovich, Death Cab for Cutie, The Clash, Ministry, Louis Prima, Skinny Puppy, The Flaming Lips, The Cult, The Smiths, The Postal Service, Nine Inch Nails, Catherine Wheel, New Bad Things, Godspeed You Black Emperor, Velvet Underground, Neil Diamond, Guster, Oasis, Dropkick Murphys, any rendition of "Amazing Grace" on the bagpipes, Jane's Addiction, The Cure, Social Distortion, The Swans, Beatnik Filmstars, Doves, Plump DJ's, Jesus and Mary Chain, The Business, The Replacements, Lemonheads, Arcade Fire, Brian Jonestown Massacre, Siouxsie and the Banshees, New Order, this could really go on forever. I spent my youth in nightclubs and at shows, so it's a mix of industrial, "new wave", techno, "punk", indie rock, psychedelic, "things I can put quotation marks around", and a closet love for Guns N' Roses. Come by and look at my CD's. It's easier. I would like to add, since I reside in Vermont, that I hate Phish, Trey Anastasio, and all those related "musical" projects and those "musicians" who wish to sound like Phish. I'd rather pass a kidney stone than listen to Phish.

There is always room for more tambourine. You can never have enough tambourine.

Then there is this, dig this:

Movies:

Stuff Jamie and I can lay around in bed all day and watch. Oh, friends only let friends watch widescreen.

Television:

Ghost Hunters, Masters of Horror, Most Haunted, soccer games, Steven's Untitled Rock Show, all those movie channels, Chiller Channel, "Do You Believe in Miracles? The Story of the 1980 U.S. Hockey Team"

Heroes:

People who give up everything to give to others, Ronald Reagan, my grandfather, and The Lulu. She conquers the South with her wit and charm.

The Equalizer.

John Entwistle

Wilford Brimley.

Anthony Bourdain

Count Yorga

These are two interesting insects I have found in my yard recently.   This was sort of cool, and looked a lot like a dragonfly.  I am not entirely sure what it is.  It was busy, so I...
