About Me

I am not going to add you as a friend unless I know you in real life, etc. Do not send me an email saying "ADD ME PLZ lolzer!!!111oneoneeleventy", and if your profile is set to private and I don't know you, chances of me adding you go to about 0%. With that out of the way, you wil not learn anything you do not know about me here most likely, nor will you find a reason to want to know me.

That said, I am not exactly sure what to put about me. I'm a bit of a geek, I am seriously working on improving myself and my situation right now. I enjoy talking with people, discovering new things, being what people consider a walking contradiction politically and what I consider just being me. Tired of being alone these days, but eh, still have standards and nobody at all interested in me - eh, who cares...

My Amazon Wishlist (or, stuff I am going to get someday)

Fun with drugs (day 2)

So, last night I remember getting into bed and wondering if I was going to fall asleep or if I was going to suffer another night of no sleep, or worse yet a night of drugged-out zombieism (like Ambiem...

Went to the gym last night, had a 3-month weight / whatever checkup... pretty much failed on the physical strength part, but that's mainly because my right arm is sore from bowling. 3 months, I droppe...

Why does MySpace think I am a Mason?

I've been noticing more and more ads on MySpace for Masonic rings, garments, etc, so I decided to do a little looking. As I have access to a couple of other MySpace accounts (Such as BCN) I logg...
