I am obsessed with music and movies. Disco Rollerskating, man I'm all about that. Fingerpaint myself silly. Writing is my deep secret passion; my illegitimate love-child that I hide in a basket in my sock drawer. I play guitar and sing in my band: Twenty Mule Team [formerly known as Hubwife, who was formerly known as The Corey Hughes 5, who was formerly known as SST (Speedo Swim Time), who was formerly known as Flickjob, who was formerly known as Braunschwanger]. I have a new obsession now: soccer. What an amazing sport. It's too bad the U.S.A. is so apathetic towards it. We could have an absolutely stellar team if every kid didn't grow up wanting to be Kobe or Derek Jeter. Someday we will. The world will see. Oh, I also love foosball. Bag it up.
I'd like to meet:
Bob Ross. I would shake his hand and thank him for helping me through the roughest years of my life with his celestial art.
