About Me



This is pretty much me in a nutshell.

I am Joe. I am either lacking in words or full to the brim with them. I love movies and stylized violence and stupid funny things and running through sprinklers and snuggling and someone. That's about it. I'm only interesting if you're strange, so I hope you find me interesting.

Try and get to know me. I'm pretty patient with it.
So, go out of your way to talk.
I'll go out of my way to listen.

My Interests

I love winter.

I really do.There's an innocence to it.Some sort of quality in the air.A crispness.A newness.The faint promise of snow, and the persevering hope for it long after the season's prime.The giddiness that...

A conversation I overheard at work today.

"Heyyy. I hadn't seen you in a while.""I've been . . . around.""I've been gone.""Oh, really?""Yeah. So, I've been cheating on my boyfriend.""That's . . . nice.""I told him last night.""What'd he say?"...

This past Friday.

Made me pretty pleased, I must admit.I'm glad I saw Final Fantasy. The little bastard's quite fun to listen to.The shadowshow was also, well, original. Which made me pleased. Masterful things that no ...

It keeps changing.
