l'amour c'est mon art et mon amoureux, la toile.

About Me

Sometimes I hang out in my still largly untapped core, chipping away at the stalegtites and think to myself "What, these old things?" I have a grand plan to market a no name brand version of Dr. Pepper and call it Pepper PhD. It will make me rich. And then when i am rich I will donate the money i made through that to Doctors without borders as I believe in the cyclical nature of things. I love the feeling when i put on warm clothes straight out of the dryer. I'm normally cold otherwise. I like to throw rocks into the water and i like to look under rocks for little scittering crabs. It's fun to try and catch them and then show young children the wonderous things that can be found at the beach! I wish I was a genius. I have poor spelling and math skills. I want to live up to the rest of my family who were always very grounded with a strong working class moral core. I seek epiphanys through conversation, reading and watching lots of educational television shows. Good songs make me feel like there is a purpose to life, bad ones make me want to go on a killing spree. I loathe pretence and manipulative people. I want to have a family one day regardless of how unpopular that idea is with my friends or of the fact that the world is hideously over populated with humans. I am often taken aback by the glimmer of intelligence i sometimes see in others but I'm usually painfully let down by the pervasive ignorance throughout our society; I have to learn to see the good in people if only for my own mental health.
