I am here for Friends

About Me

I dislike automobiles and the asphalt they seem to require.

I prefer grass, rocks, sand, dirt, and ocean. The only time I prefer pavement is if the real ground is littered with burrs and goatheads and I have no shoes on.

I like words more than I like most things, but I guess you could call me a late bloomer in letting myself chase down a future related to them. I am, at long last--after five ridiculous undergraduate years and one ridiculous undergraduate degree--taking my very first college literature course. I'd like to make a living writing, teaching literature, reading literature, or some combination of the above. Easier said than done, I know, because who doesn't want to live within a beautiful fantasy? There's ample competition for my particular fantasy, let me tell you.

We'll see.



My Interests

I'd like to meet:

People who have bucked up and realized the dishes will always need washed one more time, and yet still believe they're worth dirtying again.

Can't get enough

I desperately desire more friend requests from unoriginal bands with tone-deaf singers and hackneyed lyrics.  Spread the fucking word, please.
