My Interests

juggling music (writing, playing, listening...whatever) reading bicycles computers (games, music, teh intarweb, etc.) cartoons board games

I'd like to meet:

unfortunately, i generally don't know if i would have liked to have met some one until i've already done so. funny how that works...

Music:

i listen to a pretty broad range, but lately i've been listening to a lot of the arcade fire, yeah yeah yeah's, cursive, mogwai, 65 days of static and ravens & chimes. however, my all time favorites are bad relgion, the pixies, weezer and spring heeled jack.

Movies:

anything done by Jim Henson anything done by Tim Burton a lot of fantasy/adventure and scifi films some anime

Television:

i don't have cable (too expensive and too many commecials). i'd usually rather read or watch a DVD, though i do miss cartoon network.

    Heroes:

    My father. He is...well...he's my dad. He raised me, for a number of years on his own. As time goes by i realize how much like him I can be, and I think it's fantastic. I owe who I am to him, and for that I am forever in his debt...except when I screw up. Then he owes me.
