About Me

the sound things make, like "brrrrrrrrrrrrmmmmmmmmmmm." i've been eating almanacs in preparation for FUCK IT SUMMER 2007. extensively working on mending our collective unhappiness-there is little that cake and coffee cannot fix, except maybe war, prostate cancer and suicide. PS. Hypnosis works.

My Interests
