In school they told me that practice makes perfect, and then they told me that nobodys perfect....so

About Me

I have a marked propensity for over-analyzation, and making things seem much worse than they are, it's a fun pastime. I don't like pork(not due to religious reasons), I think it's too dry and it tastes like shit. I like smart people...especially smart girls....especially cute smart girls. I am told that I am smart, but I think I've got a LONG way to go to deserve such accolades. I like self-deprecation, I enjoy almost any flavor of Gatorade(TM). I enjoy anything associated with THE University of Florida, and my best friend would kill me if I didn't also claim to be a fan of Notre Dame. I have a laundry list of past accomplishments that anyone would be proud of, and I also have a laundry list of mistakes and errors that are not to be proud of...I would like to claim to have learned from aforementioned mistakes, but lets be honest, does any learn from ALL of their mistakes??? I do request introduction to an that individual if they do indeed exist. They are a better man than I, and deserve a handshake and beverage of their choice to be added to my ledger. I enjoy having very involved, heated discussions about things that probably hold no relevancy to my life, and never will. I enjoy engaging someone in argument for argument's sake, and disagreeing with people not because I actually disagree, but I just like to watch people feel helpless and wrong. I am mean. Occasionally I like to ride my bicycle to the beach and go for a dip. Other days I like to make sure I avoid the sun at all costs. I am a walking contradiction. I like watching films that leave my mouth completely ajar and my jaw on the floor at their conclusion. I have a strong dislike for people who speak in metaphors. I have a strong dislike, let alone a distrust for people who don't eat meat. Most find me incredibly easy to get along with (believe it or not). I should've been an international spy, or a travel journalist. Perhaps I will apply with FODOR'S. I dont particularly like wearing shoes. I wear hats often. I almost never wear short sleeves. I love food and I eat well, I spare no expense on a great meal....even if that does mean paying $70 a plate at The Forge. I have aVERY intriguing collection of friends that could be stereotyped into every category imaginable, and I wouldnt have it any other way. I have perfected living beyond my means, I can remember a time when I was making next to nothing for a living, but was still eating @ Brasserie LasOlas 5 nights a week. I've had a pretty good run so far. I like using sentence fragments and run-on sentences too (can you tell?). My brain is already waning in sharpness, and I feel I am becoming less focused everyday, which is a frightening thought for my age. I once slept in a fast food restaurant in Orlando. I was knocked out of my shoes by a car once whilst crossing the street. I've been clinically dead more than twice. I have some major back issues. I'm old.
