It's magic and no, no matter how hard you try, you can't break it.

About Me


So I'm 31 now. I like it. Not as bad as I thought it would be! I have a beautiful daughter who's 12. She is my life, the reason I'm alive. I'm a computer programmer by day and an okay writer and photographer by night. I'm a dork. I'm a geek. I get excited over stupid things and I love computer humor.
I love to drink good coffee or cheap beer. My favorite drink this month is mojitos. I love music, especially good live rock music. I love hanging out with my friends. I love playing stupid games on the internet.
I need to lose ten pounds and I need to read about 20 books. I love to laugh and try to find a silver lining whenever possible. I love to surprise people and do nice things for those I care about. Im a very loyal friend, I may not help you kill them, but Ill help you bury them.
I spend a lot of time making things, mostly crocheted items. Some I donate to charities, some I make for friends, some I make to sell. My goal is to donate at least 15 items a year to various charities.
I'm pretty much an open book. If you want to know something about me, ask. If I don't want to tell you, I'll tell you to fuck off. Oh, and yeah, I cuss, a lot. Fuck is my favorite cuss word. Get over it or go away.
"Every time I go to the doctors I get a jacket, a straight one. It makes me feel special because I get to hug myself."
I will always keep hope against the darkness
of the fate that surrounds my life. Nothing will
shatter my faith in what I wish my world was.

My Interests

Books, music - pretty much any type, any style; in my spare time I like to spend time with my family and friends, I also like to play those stupid online games at msn and yahoo.

When I have spare time I like to write and take photos(some of which I post here). Some people like my stuff, some don't. It's out there some times and not everyone gets it. Either way, feel free to leave a comment about it.

I'd like to meet:

I'm all for meeting new people and making new friends. But please, for the love of all that is, please do not email me about the things you'd like to do to my body or have me do to you. I'm not interested. Promise. Don't waste my time or yours. If you still feel the need to email something of that nature, I will block you and report you. I'm not mean or a bitch, you're just rude and stupid.

If you want me to add you to my friends list and I don't know you, I suggest you email me to introduce yourself. Most of the blogs I post are friends only. There is a reason for that. I'm here to stay in touch with my friends not tell the world about my life.

This cracked me up!!!

Music:

I listen to a little bit of everything. From NIN to the Doors to Sublime to Cowboy Mouth to Keith Urban to what ever is playing on the local blues station. I'm not big on rap but there are a few songs I do like. I also have an appreciation for classical music.

My current favorites - Damien Rice, Butch Walker, Cowboy Mouth, Cracker, Gorrilaz, Weezer, Red Rocket Deluxe, Nekkid, John Meyer, Sublime, Garbage, Poe and a few others.

Got a suggestion of someone I might like, let me know. I'm always looking for new bands and styles of music.

Movies:

I love horror movies, Sci-Fi, and anything that will keep me guessing till the end. 'Dogma' is one of my favorites, so is 'A Nightmare Before Christmas' and 'My Fair Lady'. I'm also a bit of a SG-1 fan...

Television:

As often as possible I like to watch the Simpsons when I get home from work. I also try to catch Family Guy when I can. My new obsession is Deadliest Catch!

And anything on HGTV or Bravo or Discovery.

That's about it.

Books:

Hmmm, books. So many...let's see. Anything by Stephen King, especially the Dark Tower books. Anne Rice, Dean Koontz, and I can't forget Tom Robbins. And I will even admit, I like the Harry Potter series as well. I also like books that help me to grow as a person, mentally, spiritually, or emotionally.

I love to shop for books at Goodwill or used book stores. You never know what you’ll find and you can normally get a great deal. I love to pick up a book that I’ve never heard of and read it based solely on the picture on the cover or the comments from reviews. I’ve found so many wonderful books that way.

Heroes:

There are no heroes anymore, they have all since died away or lost their charm...
