My brain needs an off-switch.

About Me

I'm not very talkative unless you know me, I'm intoxicated, or you happen to ask an interesting question. If you happen to be in the horrible position of matching up all three of these items then good luck shutting me up. I'm both a lover AND a fighter... also a hopeless romantic with equal parts goober (okay, I'm mostly goober). "Weird" is a pretty common designation for me from my friends on an almost daily basis... I also enjoy being enigmatically honest when people ask me questions. I'm honest to a fault, so you shouldn't ask me anything if you don't want my real thoughts. I like the rain and the feel of wind at night and other cheesey shiz, but still horribly macho. ;P Oh yeah, I have a twisted sense of humor. I should probably mention that. If you can make me laugh often then you probably have one too. It's probably best to ask my friends who I am. You'll get more dirt that way. ;) I have alot of friends but I'm pretty reclusive. Good friends are paramount in my life. My old blog is here if you ever feel the need to dig through it.
"Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference"

I'd like to meet:

...in the dark near the Tannhauser Gate.

All the lights in my room have been out for a month...  I haven't even contemplated replacing the lightbulb.  I've obviously spent time contemplating why I don't contemplate replacing the li...

Wishes of Thoughtlessness

I think it's odd that people who say that life is short feel old years before I ever will will.  I think that life is long and drawn out and I don't think I'll actually feel like I'm old till I'm...

I haven't been doing too good lately. Of course, I don't tell anyone this, because I fear the backlash of pity or worry that so many people thrive for. Why I shun it, I have no idea. Maybe I do and...

On Angels Wings

I saw a picture posted on the web today of a dead pigeon whose wings were splayed wide on a sidewalk.  The photographer said she took the picture because they were 'inexplicable, angelic, rendere...

Anybody home?

It's a good day... or more truthfully I'm just in a good mood.  My brain is amazingly quiet today.  Been waiting for that to happen for around a month now.  Yay!  Good stuff...
