About Me

I could really go anywhere with this...hmmmm. I think of myself as generally a kind person, but I'm fiercely lazy when left to my own devices....this is why I often enroll myself in degree programs or other activities that expect a lot from me and are frought with deadlines. I am currently in the greatest city in the world, but have friends in many places. I am equally poor at keeping in touch with all of them and hope that myspace helps me change that.

My Interests

I have lots of interests, but I don't often pursue too many of them due to the afformentioned laziness problem. I love working with my hands...whether that be cooking, building, painting, etc. I'm interested in being in shape, but not interested in the path to get there. I pride myself in being one of the least healthy vegetarians I know. I love to eat. Food rocks! TV would seem to be one of my interests, but it's really just what I do when I'm feeling lazy. I also decide every other day that I am going to cancel my cable and save $87/month while also bettering myself. It still hasn't happened.

I'd like to meet:

Nobody famous. I'd get too silly probably. Well, maybe just those celebs that seem like they'd be really neato friends to hang out with....like Weird Al or Jack Black. Other than that, I like meeting new people...sometimes. And then I like to catch up with people from my past who have managed to break free of the mannerisms and brainwashing that seem all too prolific in the part of the world I grew up in. You're thinking "good luck", but believe it or not, it happens.

Music:

Unfortunately, my musical tastes have not evolved much since the early/mid 90s...when stuff that I could actually STAND played on the radio. No such luck in the past decade. I can always dig on some Beatles...TMBG, Ben Folds, that dog, weezer, NIN, REM, Peaches, Ohgr, Meryn Cadell, Devo. Lots more, but it seems silly to list them all here.

Movies:

Hmmmm. What's good? Almost anything animated...though not necessarily Anime. Triplets of Belleville, Spirited Away, Howl's Moving Castle, Yellow Submarine, The Incredibles, Big Fish, The Skeleton of Cadavra, all the Monty Python movies....then there are the classics of any 80s child's childhood: Spaceballs, The Princess Bride, The Evil Dead, The Goonies, etc, etc.

Television:

Television rules my life. What I think is good and what I actually WATCH are often not the same thing. What's good? The Simpsons, Southpark, Wonder Showzen, ATHF, Electric Comapany, Carnivale, Lost, House What do I watch? Law & Order, CSI, Stupid reality shit (usually of the singing variety), Cooking shows, Best week ever, dumb countdown shows. I really should get rid of the cable.

My Blog

Why dont more people change their own oil?

So, I ask this in all sincerity. You can tell me that you have no car&or that you live in a crowded neighborhood&or don't have a driveway or parking spot to call your own, and I would accept that. But...

Why does your brain let you tell lies?

So, have you ever reviewed a fond memory in your brain numerous times only to discover, as you're sharing the story with someone, that there's no possible way that it is true&or at least not entirely ...

My First Blackout

Well THAT'S a hell of a title. The implication is, of course, that I black out all of the time&which I do not. I have, however, had more than one in my life; therefore, this one shall henceforth be kn...
