About Me


THE STORY
I'm a quirky and upbeat guy lost in a sea of my own thoughts and dreams, hoping that one day soon I'll figure it out and plan a future that fits my comfort. I've tried school, multiple times, and I'm just not cut-out for the standard four-year gen ed-filled schedule that's nearly required for a degree. Perhaps an isolated tech school or film program would work best for me, all of which I've been looking into with the serious intent of pursuit.
In the breezy meantime, I'm just enjoying myself whenever and however I can, with whomever seems to be available at the time. Being a server keeps me on my feet and active, not to mention it makes me happy - I truly LOVE the people I work with, and I never mind going in for an extra shift. When I'm not at work, I'm usually out and about with the usual friends - going to dinner and bowling on the weekdays, maybe bars & clubs on the weekends. And when I'm not doing either of these things, you can find me either in front of the computer making obnoxious music videos or catching up on my favorite, most addictive television shows.
Pretty average life for a pretty above average guy, it's one that I'm content with and one that doesn't require a huge income to keep going.

I'd like to meet:

Folks with a good sense of humor, optimistic, smart and confident - yet vulnerable, and who is laid back in all meanings of the word. Everyone is different and therefor, my relationships with people will be different. I'm open to anything, seriously, but it of course depends on the person. I will say, however, that chemistry is everything and without that, there is nothing.
So, if you're up for hanging out sometime, with no pressures or expectations, let me know!

Thoughts on LONDON

I can't even begin to express how much I've been missing London since leaving it. It's like an entirely different world over there, a world I felt much more comfortable running around in. Everything s...

The Year 2006 in Review

Quite the year.I haven't journaled much these last twelve months, not much on MySpace and not much on here. In not writing events down, I'm failing to recount all that has happened - which in my mind ...

GOD.I saw this bumper sticker the other day while I drove to work. It said "GOD WAS CREATED BY MAN TO ENSLAVE MANKIND". I pondered this, and continued listening to my Annie Lennox until arriving in th...

Thoughts on WORST WEEK EVER

Last week was an awful week for me, by far the worst I've had in quite a long time. I almost lost my job due to a screw-up in the schedule that was not my fault, the faculty members at school were in ...

Thoughts on VAMPIRES

Hmm. So, I met a vampire. Yes, a full-on "I drink blood" vampire. He didn't have fangs or a cape, and he didn't turn into a bat if I said "abracadbra". But he definitely had a friend of his withdraw b...

Thoughts on KARMA

I just don't understand this. Why am I getting so screwed over and kicked in the stomach? Do I really deserve this? There are very few people in this world that I've cared about (in a romantic sense) ...
