my interests include playing music (electric guitar and I am beginning to learn the piano a little) and writing it as well. I'm starting to feel my way around town. So far I've found homes at The Cave, The Orange County Social Club, Local 506, and the Open Eye Cafe. I enjoy a good read every now and then, listening to music, going out to the movies or making it a Blockbuster night. As stated earlier coffee and Guinness. For coffee its either Open Eye Cafe, Bruegger's Bagels or Caribou Coffee, not necessarily in that order. I like dancing like an idiot, making others laugh. I used to play a lot of sports but I don't do as much of that anymore as I would like to. I'd like to get into the outdoors more but I haven't found too many people interested in that."Can I confess something? I tell you this as an artist,I think you'll understand. Sometimes when I'm driving... on the road at night... I see two headlights coming toward me. Fast. I have this sudden impulse to turn the wheel quickly, head-on into the oncoming car. I can anticipate the explosion. The sound of shattering glass. The... flames rising out of the flowing gasoline."
I'd like to meet:
A girl worth making a Mix CD for. I'm interested in meeting open-minded people, though the same interests would help. Always looking for more people to hang out with. I'd like to meet people with larger CD collections than myself. Always looking for people to go out and catch a good show. If you'd like to chat .... coffeefiend1979NOTE: IF YOU ARE A BAND DON'T ADD ME. IF I LIKE YOUR BAND I'LL ADD YOU MYSELF. IF YOU DO ADD ME I'LL ASSUME YOU CAN'T READ AND THAT YOU ARE AN ILLITERATE MORON. THANK YOU.
