About Me

I'm a vegan. I graduated from college in 2004. I'm an ENTP. Maybe I'm a little ADD. I'm secretive about my personal life but willing to share boring superficial details. I'm on a lifelong quest to get enough sleep. I once dreamed that Tom Hanks chased me through a hotel begging me to marry him. I believe everyone should continually learn interesting new skills - mine right now is writing shorthand. But enough about me - let's talk about what you think of me.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

People who are positive and enthusiastic. People who aren't hitting on me. People who share some of my interests. People who can use an apostrophe correctly but don't care if I write in fragments.

Swine Flu

All right, it's time for a cranky vegan to weigh in on the new swine flu epidemic.I read a FAQ about swine flu that said you can't get it from eating pork.  Can I just beg to differ?  Swine flu defini...

Waikiki, Day Two

Here we are in paradise.  It's a perfect 80 degrees with a soft wind coming off the ocean.  Everyone we see is relaxed and smiling and smelling of coconut oil.  There is hardly any traffic and the bea...
