About Me

"I expect to pass through this world but once. Any good therefore that I can do, or any kindness or ablities that I can show to any fellow creature, let me do it now. Let me not defer it or neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again." -William PennLayout made by klc60802 at CreateBlog.com .

My Interests

Everything. I've made it a goal to learn everything that fits into my defintion of awesome before I die. Some things I already know or am into include... Social activism, social reform, music (specially punk and indie), dancing (have learned most traditional styles), Concert hopping, WND, the study of non traditional relationships, my python Jean, naked partys, designing posters, really good bourbon, really good wine, working as a dj at kbvr, my friends (they're f-ing amazing!) knitting (hey don't knock it til u've tried it, u can make some cool stuff), etc. Future pursuits include... welding, wine making, software design, baristaing (I doubt that's a word) and plenty more.

I'd like to meet:
