Nerding up your internets since '06

About Me


I'm supposed to come up with something clever to put here, right? Or proclaim how awesome I am? Well, I'm awesome in the fact that when I get bored I sit around and sculpt little pigs. If you like little pig sculptures...you might think I'm awesome. Awesome's a good word, don't you agree? I generally like stuff....sparkly stuff, fluffy stuff, tasty stuff, etc. I sleep with a stuffed pig in a Ring Leader costume named Olivia. (What's with all the pigs? I'm clueless.) I make clothes and random costumes and play a lot of video games (ref: nerd). I support my local comic store and spend my hard earned money on ridiculous impulse buys. I'm creative, sometimes loud, sometimes quiet, never too terribly dull. I'm a huge comic nerd. I dress up like super heroes in my free time. I play World of Warcraft (Vierot - 60 hunter on Deathwing, Pumpkins - 43 warrior on Shadow Council) and various other video games. I enjoy reading and nerd out at school over science and history. Hotrods make me swoon.
