About Me

I've been feeling very creative lately and am pushing myself to create art. But that motivation only comes in spurts and lasts a short time, so I find myself getting distracted. I still love graphic design, even though I am finding myself distracted from that as well - here's my portfolio website: www.emaureendesign.comOne of my many ambitions in life is to become featured in The Stranger's "Drunk of the Week" column.
I've the above statement posted on this profile for over a year now. My best friend took the title though in this week's column:

My Interests

Design, painting with acrylics, going to loud shows, lounging around, watching movies, drinking coffee, sitting in bars with lots of drinks and good conversation.

I'd like to meet:

People that know how to let loose and don't really mind what others think of them. Lots of sarcasm is greatly appreciated. People who can be obnoxious but also understand the appropriate times to be polite. Those who know the difference when writing "your" and "you're".

Music:

Pip fartin' on a snare drum

Movies:

Goodfellas, O Brother Where Art Thou, Can't Hardly Wait, Fight Club, Donnie Darko, The Goonies,The Virgin Suicides, Dumb and Dumber, Mallrats, Casino, Out of Sight

Books:

Going Postal, The Fuck-Up, The Odyssey, Where Trouble Sleeps, Geek Love, The Outsiders, Everyone Poops
