About Me

I rely a bit too heavily on alcohol and irony.I'm a superhero with superior intellect that the pope, the president and Bono routinely call on to save the day. I aspire to be a junkie rock critic with a rising political career. Like Marc Spitz (SPIN), only not an asshole. I'm in grad school for no other reason than that I can't find anything better to do. I would love to save the world and stop hunger, injustice and poverty, but as a result of general apathy and a hereditary predisposition for alcoholism, I've given up. AOL IM: pigeletpc

What Type of Alcoholic Beverage Are You?

My Interests

Boys, drinking, music, politics, wine, books, movies, golf, volleyball, going to shows, and then just hanging out and playing cards with friends. Big fan of spontaneity and random road trips. I'm always the last one to pass out at the party, so I like observing, listening and talking. 5 am philosophical conversations are my favorite, but then again I can fuck around the best of them. I should try to find a balance between the serious and fun, but more than anything I end up having fun.
