Hello, babies. Welcome to Earth. It's hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It's round and wet a

About Me

I 'd like to claim a lot of things, insanity, for example; or maybe France. My initial thought is that through the former, I'd gain freedom from retribution, but that it may in the end lead to losing that freedom to a life of force-fed thorazine and more restraints than the busiest Fetish Night in memory; less the flashy spikes and black leather. As far as the latter; I mean, I'm down with The Louvre, and all the Champagne would be nice, but I question whether or not it would be worth the stereotypical stigma of being short, having a bad moustache and being mean to foreigners.I think for now I'll just stick with responsibility for a fair bit of poems, songs, and artwork; the occasional brain cramp, a living room that smells of coffee around Noonish on weekends, a mid-sized collection of varied bourbon bottles, a fireplace full of ashes and a poker with a half melted handle. --Oh yeah; and this page.I put in the standard 80 a fort-night for a faceless machine; Damn The Man, Long Live The Man. I don't resent it, (aside from the alarm at 5:40 am) on the contrary, I'm glad that it allows me to meet the demands of independence and being an adult *-heh-* but still funds and fosters irresponsible mayhem and a host of incredibly fun, really bad ideas, with a few good ones as suitable punctuation.

I'd like to meet:

P eople; prefferably interesting. Not full blown psychotic interesting, but kind of genius-borderline psychotic is good. I mean, intelligence isn't mandatory, but it makes for better conversation, which tends to be a cornerstone of interaction. Someone I can people-watch with. Socialization is imperative; as I'm definitely not a home-body, but not necessarily a socialite. Just being out is enough sometimes, but its nice to meet random people. Writers, Poets, Philosophers, Artists of all types; Cynics, lovers, the passionate spirits, the tortured souls; all those who embrace life, take the bitter with the sweet, (maybe in coffee); and don't mind that I smoke too many cigarettes.
