About Me

I'm a pretty laid-back guy. I can chill in almost any environment, and most of the time I am more than happy just to get out of my house. I dropped off the face of the earth for about 6 months for medical reasons, but now I'm looking to get back to life as normal. I can definitely be a music-snob sometimes because I spend oh so very much time looking for new music, listening to what I've got, reading reviews, and even playing music under some circumstances. I can play guitar and bass semi-proficiently depending on the where and when. Alcohol is oh so much fun. If I'm drinking, then I probably don't care what you think of me as long as I'm having a good time. However, by nature, I am a pretty shy, quiet, guy, who you probably wouldn't even notice was there if I have never met you before. More than anywhere else, I'd absolutely love to visit Amsterdam or Japan. I'd also love to have a car again, and I'd love to move to Astoria, but I guess we need goals in order to keep us going. I absolutely adore the NY Mets, and it is not uncommon for me to watch/listen to them on an almost daily basis during baseball season. I love animals, I would never eat or mistreat them, and the 3 cats here would all attest to that! I have a tendency to be a little bit too Emo at times, and I have been bitten by the "Nice guys finish last" bug on way too many occasions. So, I guess don't expect me to be "too nice" of a guy :x
