Head strong, swords drawn, into the storm.

About Me

I'm not entirely sure how to sum myself up in a few words. It's difficult to do with someone who has so many views and angles, so many ideals and morals. All you need to know is my friends and family are the most important thing I have. I treat you how you want to be treated, provided you treat me how I want to be treated.I'm addicted to tattoos. I drink cause I'm Irish. I yell cause I'm Scottish. I play video games too much. I'm a nerd at heart, and I'll fix your computer. I fall for girls who don't fall back. I'm mushy like gummy bears when I'm drunk. I'm the guy people call when a situation might get sticky. I'm as blunt as a mace. I'm a giant teddy bear. I'm proud. I'm exactly what I want to be. I'm exactly what you need me to be and nothing else.I'm Joel.
