Neurotic is sexy...look at Woody Allen.

About Me

I'm a writer. I don't trust people who don't drink coffee.I like foreign flicks because I like men who I can't understand.I like the feeling I get when I get home from the gym-- that sick nausea fatigue feeling I get because I have low blood pressure.In the future, I want to be a writer.I'm neurotic and nerdy, and my priorities lay in my daily intentions, nothing further.

CONFLICT OF INTEREST! This version looks better. I think it has something to do with compression.

My Interests

Reading, writing, but no arithmatic (sic). Movies, coffee, cigarettes. The L.A. Kings! Brainstorming creative ideas, then never using them for any purpose. Channel 101. (Did you get that oxymoron?)

For all you nerds out there...Ira Glass talking about storytelling...pretty amazing.

I'd like to meet:

A short phone survey.

If an Indian guy named Daniel calls you and wants to survey you about Fast Food and tells you it will only take a few minutes, don't believe him. Even if you want to be nice, fight the feeling. And wh...

Here's what I'm going to do...

If and when I have a kid, I'm going to name him/her Daneek. It's such a pretty name. And it means "roof" in Armenian.
