I am here for Friends

About Me

basically i'm a hippie redneck bacon-lovin country secular humanist raver. i have a shotgun, rifle, and a four wheel drive with touchscreen gps that integrates with my powerbook G4. grew up in Austin but moved to the crazy town of l.a., three times. now i'm back in OKC, sortof. bitchin' about seeing too many sunrises in a row (while cherishing every second). all the crazy is carefully thought out till it reaches perpetual, and then LOOK OUT. so protective and fun-tangled rat-nested with my close friends that it seems baptist snobby (i don't mean to be). if you want to delve a lil further try

My Interests

I WON'T ADD YOU IF I DON'T KNOW YOU. I AM NOT FRIENDS WITH BANDS, MOVIES, BOOKS, OR TOASTERS FOR THAT MATTER. NOTHING PERSONAL, THEY JUST NEVER RETURN MY CALLS.
i like airplanes, old cars, dive bars with slurry patrons, uppity hollywood parties with slurry shitheads, laughing till it hurts, gettin' into trouble, gettin' out of trouble, burning man, burning flipside, hunting, fishing, the lake, the gulf coast, my friends,

I'd like to meet:

good crazy people with just the right amount of manners. someone who respects the rules enough to know when they should be broken. i already have the best people in my life so it's a crap shoot really. i'm on here to keep track of all of 'em.
