About Me

You know, when I think about myself and the life I've led, I feel self-loathing, shame, disgust; I'm a waste and a failure. But when I imagine myself as a character in a novel, well, I think I'm pretty interesting: kind of off-beat, intriguing, entertaining.

My Interests

Film Noir, Radio Drama, Video Games, Massive Multiplayer Online Games, XBox, Comic Books, Gin, Paramedics, EMTs, RPGs, Board Games, Music

I'd like to meet:

I'd like to play a game of poker with Gambit from the X-Men. I'd like to meet people who are spontaneous. People who are intelligent without seeming boorish or fake. People who are cultured without being snobbish. People that deviate from the norm.
