Gravity is a harsh mistress!

About Me

Well this is tough, how do I write a condensed "about me" entry for a web page, how trite can that be. Eh, but what am I, if not a little trite...I will give it a shot.Life is too short to iron. I hate ironing. It sucks! Oh yeah, and cotton balls, they are icky and nasty and auughghghg. Hate them, hate them, hate them.........Aside from those imperative facts, there is nothing else that needs be said....unless of course it is to note that I sometimes have sproingy hair....but only sometimes.The end.Oh yeah, and I am adding this trite computer generated synopsis of me based on the day of my birth....yes....I know you care.
Your Birthdate: January 20
Your birth on the 20th day of the month adds a degree of emotion, sensitivity, and intuition to your reading.
The 2 energy provided here is very social, allowing you to make friends easily and quickly.
Yet you are apt to have a rather nervous air in the company of a large group.
You have a warmhearted nature and emotional understanding that constantly seeks affection.
You are very prone to become depressed and moody, as emotions can turn inward and cause anxiety and mental turmoil.
It can be hard for you to bounce back to reality when depression sets in.
When things are going well, you can go just as far the other way and become extremely affectionate. What Does Your Birth Date Mean?

My Interests

Music, Crazy outfitted individuals with sparkling personalities, bizarre flicks, outlandish meals made on my stove, sproingy hair, math, books with well developed characters that do interesting things (NOT BILLY BUDD), traveling to countries where people are different than me, helping other people, and lots more cool stuff; like:weekly world news

Music:

I like lots of it, and the list is long, and hardly encompassed here........but here it goes: Nick Cave, The Beatles, Tori Amos, Dave Matthews Band, Portishead, NIN, TOOL, Flogging Molly, Gillian Welch, Johnny Cash, Christine Lavin, Tom Waites, Janice Joplin, Depeche Mode, Massive Attack, Pogues.........

Movies:

I like Movies, I watch them a lot. That list is too daunting to think about

Television:

I do not have channels on my TV. But after this new relationship I have founded with Netflix, there are a few shows I dig: Farscape, Arrested Development, Joss Whedon stuff, Deadwood, Carnivale, Ab Fab, Red Dwarf, and Black Adder. I also have all Invader Zim episodes that I could lay my hands on in this house thing, with a Gir in the roof..

Books:

Just a few favorite authors include: Neil Gaimon, Maeve Binchy, Barbara Kingsolver, Kurt Vonnegut, Carl Hiasson, Christopher Moore, Camus, .... I like the obvious Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter series. Kage Baker's books are excellent. I recommend them to anyone who likes historical novels, or science fiction. They are lots of fun. kagebaker.com

Heroes:

Put someone one a pedestal, and they only have one place to go. There are of course some people whose redeeming qualities I utterly admire. As cheesy as it sounds, my parents are near the top of that list. They both are accepting loving people who try to make the most out of life. They were decent parents too (in my opinion they turned out STELLER (and modest) children (See, I was even nice to my sister there, proving that STELLER and modest thing).
