About Me


Anyone can see this. Anyone who chooses to view can, may, and most likely will make descisions. I mean, thats what we do, right? We take in information, we process it, and come to some conclusion based on what we've perceived. No one else will ever see this page as you do. No one else will ever see me as you do. Sometimes i wish i could project every little quirk, every word, every passion and every feeling that is me... but, then I'd just be one person. To everyone. But there are thousands of me. Different varitations. I mean differnt things to different people. Depending on what they've experianced with me, and depending on how they interpet what i present to them, i could be a stronghold, a weakling, a prodigy, a dreamer, a fool, or the crazy lady that sits in a corner playing with her hair and imitating cats.. and that's marvelous. Any one of us could be any combination of any limitless set of terms to any other who takes a second to perceive them. So as you read,and make descisions and conclusions, know I am what you see, yet more than you may ever know.
I'm very introspective, and hyperactive when given the smallest amount of caffine. Music is my analgesic and my impetus, and I'm an intern at a place that makes great music be heard by large numbers of people. Entropy and I used to get along a little too well, but lately we've been keeping our distance. Kind of. I used to eat a lot of sugar.

My Interests

guitar, philosophy, warm starry nights, the sixities, finer automobiles, universal love, relativity, learning, compsing things, media literacy, aesthetics, utopias/distopias, lingering moments, existentialism, randomness, ideas of the ideal

I'd like to meet:


Someone who can see the world in many ways.

Music:

I love all kinds of music, but my favorites are classic rock, blues, garage, psychedelic, and power pop stuff.
