Reading, writing, learning, drawing, singing, playing music, hanging out with my friends, intellectual conversations, hypotheticals, debate theory, political science, philosophy, theology, contemporary struggles, movies, hot rods, lowriders, fixing busted ass cars so they shine like they're supposed to, and most importantly, hope. It's been a curse as of late... and I can hold on to a burning skillet with the best of them... but I'll always have it.
Kindred spirits, those who thirst for a greater understanding of the world, any who can provide coherent, intelligent conversation. But I'm not about the 100% brains 100% of the time, either. Random goofiness is always a good thing.
and NO I'm not looking to "hook up" or whatever. I've been blessed with a wonderful girlfriend of two years, and have never been happier. What I AMM looking to do is meet some new people to talk to. I'm always down for a good conversation with someone new.
Feel free to send me a message here, or on AIM (DreamingPiscean), or on yahoo messenger(juggalo_icarus)... I'm rarely on either as of late, but add me just in case, if you're interested.
Let's chat it up a bit, and who knows.
A long ass list of various groups and artists that make music that I listen to when I either want to feel good about myself, or bad about myself. A GREAT musician is one that can make music that does both.
Too many to list. I am the God of Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon for a reason. (insert lame nerdy conversation)
Whatever happens to be on to distract me.
Damn near anything Stephen King, especially the Dark Tower series and any of his work that is directly linked to that saga... but my personal library has nearly 200 books by different authors... some contemporary like King, Grisham, Straub, Brown... but I also have a lot of the classics. A lot of biographies, too. Informational stuff, be it a repair manual for a '69 Charger, or a base study in quantum mechanics or super-string theory... it all boils down to one simple philosophy, though... If you pick up a book, and within the first 20 pages it doesn't capture your attention, it probably never will.
Mabel Jean Saenz (R.I.P. 1929-2000, I miss you Granny), my grandmother. You survived The Great Depression, an abusive husband, raised six kids damn near on your own, helped raise seven grandkids, and saw the birth of a few great-grandkids. You fought cancer before I was born, kicked it to the curb, and stayed with us long enough for me to know you and love you. It's been eight years since you went home, and part of me still aches... but you've shown me how to be strong... and it has helped me through so much. Thank you, Granny... I know I'll see you later. I love you, and give little Timmy a hug for me, k?
