About Me

Missed a couple essential stages in childhood psycho-social development, have 32 steaks in my freezer, can name all the minor prophets in less then 6 seconds, and have a kitty named twain.

My Interests

I like to smell things. And plant propagation. Neuroplasticity. Reading. Riding the bus. Playing Claire Scarlet (mah baybah grand). And anything sacriligous.

I'd like to meet:

People who are eccentric enough to not be disturbed by the fact that I'm weird. Also, people who think that AA is who you call when your car needs towing.
