My Interests

My amazing girlfriend, my amazing friends, my amazing family, playing records, watching movies, reading, my Blackberry Pearl, Adelphia DVR, Lakers basketball, vacationing, Las Vegas, running, my iPod, kicking ass on the daily.

I'd like to meet:

DEFINITELY NOT YOUR BAND! SO STOP IT!

I will not add your band.

I will not add you if I dont know you. Basically, if I passed you on the street, and I wouldn't know who you are, or if I wouldn't say - at the very least - "What's up?", then please don't try to add me. You probably will try though, cause I'm that awesome. But try to restrain yourself.
