Garth

My organs are the juciest. Zombies are a problem.

About Me

I'm reserved for long periods of time, but this is only while my sanity is cohesive enough to restrain the pressurized liquids of my psyche. When it bursts like the overfull blader of an elderly man who had thusfar maintained his dignity in front of his family, now sobbing and staring into the dead eyes of time, I talk like this to people who I had previously formed tenuous friendships with. They stare at me, unable to respond as they would to others, years of social interaction inapplicable to this new form of conversation. But soon thereafter the roles are reversed, their behaviour, their relationships, their mating dances all foreign to me, limiting my methods of conversation to such a degree that I likely won't say anything.

Snowboarding, Traveling the world, The Japanese language, Writing, Burning Man, Guitar

This weekend

Girls.This week I had lunch with Akiko and Kousuke from my snowboarding circle. I dig Akiko, but she's very strange, and I think that in general she's not very into me. I had a good time with the two ...
