About Me

I: live in Ames, have 3 roommates, like live rock music, like guitar hero, play bass (poorly), tend to get really drunk at inappropriate times, own an animal (isn't that weird?), am usually hungry, don't update this as often as I should, like Facebook better then Myspace, dunno do other stuff.

My Interests

Hmm...things I'm interested in...

I'd like to meet:


Art Alexakis, Daniel Negreanu, Brian Voss, Norm Duke, Kari Byron, Chuck Palahniuk, Sarah Chalke, Morgan Webb, Dave Mordal, Dr. Drew Pinsky and everyone else you haven't heard of.

Music:

Hmm...I like a lot of different music, but not most rap or country. Some of my favorite groups include: Everclear(of course), Escape The Fate, Incubus, Theory of a Deadman, Panic! at the Disco, Against Me!, Paramore, Boys Like Girls, Weezer, STP, Dashboard Confessional, Jack Johnson, Foo Fighters, Hawthorne Heights, Breaking Benjamin, Audioslave, 30 Seconds to Mars....and there's more, but that's probably enough for now. I'm also a big fan of live music, and I run the soundboard for a band called "Color Me Blonde." It's all sorts of fun, and I get paid in beer.

Movies:

I'm a fan of horror if it's actually good, of course comedy, and for some reason I like movies that have a huge twist at the end. A few favs: Fight Club, The Matrix (the sequels were blah but fun to look at), Gladiator, Donnie Darko, Anchorman, Memento, Kill Bill vol. 1 & 2, Groundhog Day, The Breakfast Club, Shaun of the Dead, The Shawshank Redemption, Saw, Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, Crash, The Nightmare Before Christmas, The Big Lebowski, Lilo and Stitch...you get the idea.

Television:

When I watch TV, it's usually Adult Swim, you know, Family Guy, Futurama, ATHF...I'm also digging Heroes and Scrubs right now...I watch other stuff too, but I don't really watch a whole lot of TV.

Books:

Hmm....Anything by Dr. Seuss is gold to me. Ok...here's a big list of books that I've read and enjoyed sans the books I didn't. In no particular order: Tick Tock by Dean Koontz, The Icewind Dale Trilogy and The Dark Elf Trilogy by R.A. Salvatore, Wicked, Son of a Witch, Mirror Mirror, and Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister by Gregory Maguire, The Godfather and Omertà by Mario Puzo The Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide by Douglas Adams, The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown, The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis, Harry Potter 1-7 by J.K. Rowling, the complete works of Chuck Palahniuk, and The Dark Tower series by Stephen King (Other Stephen King books I enjoyed: The Eyes of the Dragon, The Stand, It, Cell, The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon, Gerald's Game, Desperation, The Regulators, From a Buick 8, The Green Mile, Salem's Lot, and Thinner). There's probably more books I liked, but I can't think of any right now. Currently I'm reading The Sicilian by Mario Puzo . Suggest a book for me to read and I'll check it out!

Heroes:

Niki Sanders, Hiro Nakamura, Peter Petrelli, Nathan Petrelli, Claire Bennet, Isaac Mendez, Matt Parkman, Molly Walker...
