About Me

I've got the biggest heart you'll ever tear apart.
**this is my favorite blurb of all the self-descript blurbs i have on the internet**
Fun is Fun
"save the psychoanalysis for your grasshopper friends"

the close call's livejournal
i might live my life by song lyrics and i might not. the truth is you don't know shit about me, even if you think you do.
also i am now offically an ordained minister of the United Life Church if you want me to perform your marriage or 'commitment' ceremony let me know.
i keep meaning to add this..if you want to Instant Message me you can or i'll take an instant massage or insistant message..my AIM nom de plume is "growupandsellout" don't be scurred and confused
i'd also like to add some fun facts about me: i'm clumsy, i drink, i drive a shitty car with a cracked windshield, i hate the rude and stupid yuppies that live here. [insert name of city i live in], and i probably will seem pretty pecimistic and sarcastic when you first meet me.
i guess i also have to add some shitty disclaimer about my top friends: i just randomly put people there. i really don't have a rating system for my friends, thats fucked up. thanks

My Interests

Booze, Painting, Music, Art, People watching, boys, Photography, Thinking for myself, thinking too much, hating republicans, booze. eating pho. talking about eating pho. interesting things that interest me. but not so much things that interest other people, mostly because it doesn't involve me. so therefore - not interesting.

I'd like to meet:

fellow audiophiles like myself...so we can talk music. discuss sartre and be all generally indie and shit.
someone who could bring themselves to admit that theyre a hipster/indierocker/scenester.
someone who could lie to themselves more than i do.
someone who would willingly walk in the cold rain with me
someone who could spend the night alone
a thief, a poet, a liar, an innocent, the guilty, a savant, les mort vivant.
someone who can admit that theyre sad and frightened.
