Not Your Savior

About Me


Well, I just entered my 23rd year on this planet and I still have no fuckin clue what to make of it or what to do with myself. Although that's never really scared me in any way, I think I'm finally okay with it.
I have some great friends, flaky as they may sometimes be, and I wouldn't give them up for the world. I'd like to think they feel the same.
I listen to people bitch all day at work, but I'm happy to say I don't go into it with my quota in mind. I just try to help every I can within my power to do so and anyone at that company who does any different should find a new area in which to endeavor.
I love movies and video games. I'm a nerd and don't really care whether you think that's cool or not. I'm not going to hide who I am or act any differently. I also love going to shows when I can.
I write a little bit in my free time, check out the blog if you wanna read it, but I make no promises. =)
Also, I don't drink or smoke. I don't really care if you do, in fact, some of my closest friends are alcoholics and potheads. However, it's annoying as fuck to bug me about my choice in the matter. I just don't do it; drop it.
Lastly, I'm just here to have fun and fumble my way through existence like most of us do. Some good entertainment, via book, movie, or music, whatever, and some friends to share them with are all I need.
