About Me

i REALLY like sleeping. i also really like summer in South America.other fun facts: i like talking to people, but not so much on the phone. i have a weird selective memory and can recite the words to random songs that i grew up listening to, but i can't remember anything i learned in high school. also, when i was younger i was obsessed with Slash (circa 88) and WWF wrestling (ultimate warrior/brutus "the barber" beefcake era). and i won't hide the fact that in some lifetime i used to be a candy raver - pacifier, stickers, and all. no glowsticks though. i swear.

My Interests

my primary interests are in the food/beverage realm, such as: dark chocolate covered pretzels and coffee beans, sour candy, candy cigarettes, Difaras pizza, sashimi, seaweed, hot sauces, mac n' cheese, crispy fries, Max lasagna, everything bagels with tofu cream cheese, spicy pickled asparagus or green beans, Acai smoothies, Pisco, mojitos, cheap beer, homebrews, Dumont bloody marys, and of course - wine.favorite flavors: ginger, mint, aji, teriyaki, coffee, lime, sour apple... wait, i'll think of more.

I'd like to meet:
