I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I think the 90s produced what may very well be the best dance music ever. The 80s come in a close second. I am very proficient at Guitar Hero and poker. Mix the afore mentioned items into one night, and you have my idea of the best time ever. I get the most joy from the simple things in life. Artsy people who are nerds at heart are the best, and artsy people without a sense of humor are lame. This is a rule of life. Beards are sweet, and if I were a dude, I would want one. I like to make layouts in PowerPoint, and I don't care how wrong it is. I bruise easily. I am a good shot at Big Buck Hunter.Bon Jovi rules.

My Interests

Douglas the wonder dog, Dream Boat, figuring out songs on the piano, road trips, singular pancakes, singing in the car, acoustic guitar, hay rides and haunted things, quoting Fubar and Napoleon Dynomite, totally "awk" situations, "sir, what the hell do you think you are doing?"

Oh Geez

Don't you ever wish you could grab your heart and say, "Listen here heart! Stop wishing for things that just aren't going to happen. Lets be logical here dangit!" That would be great.

Epiphany? I think so

Well, some crazy stuff went down last Saturday night. Someone I adore told me something that blew my mind, completely. I was a little taken aback. However, I think it was such a great thing that ha...
