About Me

First of all, I'm slightly annoyed that Myspace has taken it upon themselves to fill in my astrological sun-sign automatically for me. I like when I get to fill it in myself. That way I can put "astrology is garbage" there, in place of "Aquarius". I feel that "astrology is garbage" is much more accurate than "Aquarius".
Meanwhile, for further personal details, feel free to contact me directly. Nuances far too subtle for accurate delineation here.

My Interests

Severe storm morphology, kittens, microtones, polymetrics, blueberries, pattern recognition, trilobites, proper science test procedure, and sleep deprivation. Eventually I hope to eliminate sleep altogether.

I'd like to meet:

Creative and artistic individuals who seek questions as well as answers.
