New beginnings come after endings. Or something like that.

About Me

..

I enjoy laughing, bouncing and eating. Although I usually don’t do all three at once.

Oh, and I analyze everything. Not out loud, fortunately. But in the privacy of my own head, I’ve probably studied you from head to toe. Sorry. If I could turn it off, I would.

I LOVE dancing...although this usually involves quite a bit of alcohol consumption. Beware of my wild hair. Once I start going, I've been known to take out most of the surrounding crowd.

I also see penises everywhere and am a TCBY regular. Those two facts are in no way related.

My Interests

Writing, reading, rocking out, running, movies, bowling, being incessantly sarcastic, shocking people, unsuccessfully avoiding Mexican food and analyzing EVERYTHING.

I'd like to meet:

Intelligent people who can laugh at themselves (and me when necessary). Witty banter, dorkiness and an undying love for ice cream would also be greatly appreciated. If you like reading and know esoteric vocab, you've already got a leg up on the competition. And a leg up is good, right?!

Music:

Rush, Iron Maiden, Journey, Buckcherry, Styx, Skid Row, The Shins, Evan McHugh, Amos Lee, Damien Rice, Augustana, DMB, Jump Little Children, Blue Merle, The Fray, Keane, Pearl Jam, Sister Hazel, The Postal Service, Death Cab for Cutie, Snow Patrol, Yo Mama's Big Fat Booty Band and Ryker Jones is a must.

Movies:

Italian cinema (especially Neo-Realism), Life is Beautiful, Happiness, Les Choristes, Spanglish, The Life Aquatic, Dodgeball, Starsky and Hutch, Lord of the Rings Trilogy, Big Fish, Under the Tuscan Sun, Harry Potter, Pieces of April, The Shawshank Redemption, Road to Perdition, Secondhand Lions, and porn in general.

Television:

Six Feet Under, Dead Like Me, Sopranos, Everybody Loves Raymond, Freaks and Geeks, Nip/Tuck and my all-time personal favorite...THE GOLDEN GIRLS!

Books:

The Fountainhead, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Romola, Victorian literature, Angels and Demons, The Da Vinci Code, The Dante Club, Catcher and the Rye, Harry Potter Series, Lamb & all of Christopher Moore's other hilarious books, The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings Trilogy, Pinocchio (the original in Italian, not the sugar-coated Disney one), The Italian, The Monk, Dracula.

Heroes:

Victorian women, my parents, and Buddha.

Pubic Service Announcement

While searching for a picture of a penis online last night, I stumbled across this gem of a site. It's a public service campaign to prevent the spread of syphilis. But it's more like a hiliarious PUBI...

A love, rediscovered.

Last week was one of those weeks when everything that could go wrong went...well...wrong. It was a week of learning--about my friends, myself and human nature. I can't say I'm happy about everyth...

I saw the Devil on that mountain.

Yesterday Kristin, Leyna and I completed a 14-mile trek, which included climbing to the summit of two mountains. Below is a detailed account of our journey. After getting about 3 hours of sleep, we le...

Whores and Horrors

This Halloween weekend, I learned three very important lessons: 1) Don't leave your car in a church parking lot on Saturday night. Because you'll have to come back and get it on Sunday. In your slutty...

The Pregnancy Myth Dispelled

I felt inclined to write this blog to clear up any misconceptions about the pregnancy test that has become the topic of choice on my page. Sorry to disappoint those of you looking for a juicy bit of d...

Where's the OFF switch?

If you know me at all, you've probably heard me say, "Man, I wish my brain had an off switch." I complain about brain chatter frequently. If I could only have a moment of peace... But it's those inces...

It's time to walk away.

When I was in 4th grade, Christina was the girl nobody liked. She usually came to school in dirty clothes with her hair in knots. Everyone teased her and ridiculed her. Except me. I knew where she liv...

Good guys do exist.

Today, someone made me think of all the wonderful guys I've had and still have in my life. I've encountered my fair share of jerks, assholes and disrespectful chumps--but that's life. Fortunately, I'v...

Ben & Jerry's newest flavor falls flaccid.

Want to make me happy? Skip the expensive dinner, the jewelry, the intellectually stimulating conversation and take me out for ice cream. Summer, spring, winter and fall--a delectable dairy treat is g...
