oh, how i wish i could believe or understand that.

About Me

i like beer, music and playing old school nintendo. i love arguing, foreign flicks and the Boston Red Sox. my guilty pleasures include reading harry potter and doing sudoku puzzles. i collect decks of cards and those little bottles of shampoo from hotels. i used to collect Camel C-notes, but they stopped the promotion, so now i have like 1,600 c-notes and nothing to get with them. i don't really have hobbies so much as little projects to keep myself busy. i've been watching the home shopping network to fall asleep since i was 13; it's the most boring thing ever created. my pet peeves include sudden loud noises, bad grammar and audible mastication. i think life would be so much cooler if people randomly broke out into song and dance like in musicals. if only everyone knew the words...

if there's anything i've left out, my aim is: hotelshampoo.

My Interests

reading all kinds of books from classic literature to contemporary mysteries. listening to music of all sorts except jewel, most country & metal. playing games; card games, board games, video games, whatever. sitting around contemplating and debating all aspects of life, society and death. writing down anything i can remember the next day.
