And now they're telling me I'm crazy over here because I don't sit there like a goddamn vegetable. D

About Me


Music is my escape, my love.
Pool is next in line.
First off, I'm a one of a kind jack of all trades and that'll never change. I'm up for anything and everything. There's no way I could type up enough describing myself that would instantly allow you to vicariously get to know me through a simple website. Despite the fact that I know this, I will still attempt to give you enough information so that you can pretend like you already know me.
I've been around long enough to determine what I want out of life, but not exactly how I'm going to get it. Things come and go, time passes by, some things last longer than others, but few things last forever. I'm the kind of person who will give you my full attention. I will respect you, and I will respect the decisions you make (even if I may not agree with them, but I know that people learn from their mistakes). I'm understanding and willing to work around things rather than just tossing them away or forgetting them.
There are some things that I live for that without would make my life incomplete; my close group of friends, music, and all of the simple things that give life meaning - gazing upon bright stars in the evening sky, the rush of cool wind against your back, rain tapping on the window, the warm embrace of another. Want to know more about me? Then don't hesitate to ask anything.
