Sounds like someone woke up on the wrong side of the rock.

About Me

I was born a young English chap in London, matured into an Asian toddler in Singapore, then traded in duel-citizenships for the home of the Cubbies and Bears, Chicago. I love Chicago so much, but hate the cold so much more, so I moved to Arizona for college where I fell in love with Mexican food, Arizona basketball and sitting by the pool in December. I decided I never wanted to shovel a driveway again and refused to visit home unless it was baseball season. I burned my winter clothes and loved the irony in it. I finally overstayed my welcome in the desert, I missed water and had developed a severe allergy to cactus and javilinas. Also, I'm scared of spiders and they are really big there. I packed up my car, dog Wrigley, and drove east until I came across Austin, TX. I absolutely love Austin. How come nobody ever told me how awesome it is here. I love Lake Travis, Zilker Park, Mt. Bonnell and the bats (even though I have never seen them). I love that we have festivals celebrating Eor's birthday and Spam; first Thursdays and second Sundays. I love that the spiders are smaller. I love my dogs, my flip-flops and my cell phone, although I hate talking on it and always keep my ringer off. I'm curious why no matter where Mr. T went there were fools who needed to be pitied. I love Target but hate Wal-Mart. I love sailing and windsurfing but don't like swimming. I never wear underwear. I refuse to watch Brendan Frasier movies. I believe there should be a constitutional amendment outlawing astroturf and the designated hitter. I could live off cereal, gyros and enchiladas. I can still recite the Super Bowl Shuffle verbatum. I admire my parents more than anyone else in the world. I could write an essay on why The Eagles suck. I could also write an essay on why Neil Diamond rules. I miss Chris Farley, Walter Payton and Wrigley. I've had a pet turtle for 22 years, her name is Scooter which seemed like a real cool name when I was 8 years old. I whistle while I work. I love my DT bubble. Sundays are for football, 'nuff said. I am the Walrus.
