About Me

Daniele Piersons is my girlfriend.Click this!!! Be Cool
Appendage
Freeze
I cut you off at the knees
Achilles has nothing on me
Let me prove to you
That a stick figure truly can
Bleed
Now you're down to size
You look a little bit different
Without the preemptive pride
But your sedentary smile
Still hits both sides
And your eyes glow
Like you mean all the things you say
And your lies know
That you can't erase what you create
But right now you're the perfect height
For praying
For dissolving
You're sucking in and revolving
So hard that the room around you
Becomes a vacuum
Surrounds you
And you have blisters on your hands
Your skin is stretched
And your hair is a mess
And I think I just saw your heart fall to the floor
Sucked out through the gaping hole in your gut
And your lungs are outside and pulsing
Feeding oxygen through your dull ribs
Exhale in vacancy
And realize that you're empty
A single solitary patchwork of limbs
And all that's left
Is your pretty face
And two small stick hands
To paint it.

If you want to know about me, read my blogs . Read, comment, subscribe. Simple.I'm just a guy. A pretty ok one, I'd like to think. I suppose that's subjective though. I do LA stuff. That should answer just about every question. Mostly, I write. Sometimes I do other things. Sometimes I throw parties at various locations with excessively cool people. Sometimes I dream, that he is me. You've got to see that's how I dream to be. I dream I move, I dream I groove, like Mike. If I could be like Mike. Be like Mike. Like Mike. If I could be like Mike.
I used to be in a band. Now I'm mostly not in a band. Maybe someday I'll be in a band again. I like bands. I like screaming my lungs out on stage. It's a beautiful form of release and self expression. Good times. If you want to check out what my former band used to do, go here, Pure .
I like good people. People who are funny. People who are interesting. People who have conversations that don't bore me. I'd rather be friends with assholes than with boring people. People who are talented. I invariably feel much better between 10pm-4am than I do from 10am-4pm. I'm kind of an asshole unless I know you and like you and then I'm absolutely not an asshole. I can't emphasize the following enough...I think Republicans suck. Religious people scare the shit out of me. I'm opinionated. I like to fuck things up a lot.
I absolutely despise small talk. I hate when people force you to hear their banal conversations. I wish there was a law against it. It's truly noise pollution. A lot of people in LA think their shit is going to be interesting to someone around them, so they talk louder. It makes me want to thrash them. I don't want to pretend I like someone I don't like, and I'd never want someone else to feel forced to talk to me. So let's just agree to never have small talk. I usually hate having phone calls that last longer than 2 minutes, unless I'm catching up with family or old friends, or learning about new ones. Phone calls are dead to me.Much of my focus right now is on writing. I'm working on a book, which I'll talk very little about and at this rate I will never finish...two scripts that I won't speak a word on...and everything else (blogs, songs, poems, etc...) that I'll post here. Those of you who regularly read my bullshit and respond make me really, really, ecstatically, splendidly happy. I appreciate it to no end.
I have the absolute best friends, and I'm meeting more good, successful, interesting people all the time. The circle just keeps expanding. If you want know what I'm up to, I'm usually with them if I'm not working or writing. I prioritize my friends over pretty much everything and I like it that way.
I spend most of my time at home. Why not? Sadly, I just moved out of the now infamous Weddington house. This means that for the first time in over three years, I live with zero D'Elias. That is extremely unsettling. Ashton thankfully will still be within a five minute radius, which keeps us roughly where we've been for the better part of 25 years. Chris Macho will be sorely missed. Alba practically lives next door.
I now live in perhaps the most amazing house in Hollywood with two of my very best friends. It's going to be incredible. The answer is yes, if your question is, "Can I come hang out at the pool".
And yes, I know I'm an asshole.
Would you like me to be creepy with your pizza?

My Interests


Music, Sports -Steelers, Pirates, Penguins, Bulls-, Philosophy, Politics -Blue States-, Intelligent conversations, Movies, Art, Writing, a little bit more music, my best friends...

I'd like to meet:

A new General Manager for the Pittsburgh Pirates, all of the girls in the True ads that pop up on Myspace, a publisher, a weak guy holding a winning power ball ticket when no one else is around, a small animal that can talk, a clown when he isn't working as a clown, and someone who can fix my neck.
Interesting people who think I'm interesting.
Girls...hmm...
Someone who impresses me without trying. Someone who thinks my friends are funny. Someone my mom could appreciate. Someone who makes me remember and forget.
The chances of me getting into a relationship are slightly greater than zero. I like strong personalities, great brains, fun people, conversationalists, girls who can hang all night or watch a movie and crash out at 10:30, girls with personal style, a way about them, a certain je ne sais quoi, if you will (and if you think I actually talk like that, you're retarded). I like people who are INTERESTED in things. Music, movies, art, fashion, doggies, bunnies, fishies, kitties, origami...whatever. Doesn't even have to be something I like. Just LIKE something. How is it that so many girls' activities are limited to working, drinking, shopping, tanning, and talking on the phone? I'm completely uninterested in party girls. You're fun to hang out with but I honestly can't take the vacant personalities and lack of morality seriously. Fucking lame. And oh yeah, I do care about looks, and no, that doesn't make me superficial. It makes me realistic. Superficial would be caring about ONLY that. I want the total package. I'm pickier than Seinfeld. I want to look at your face, hear your voice, listen to your thoughts, and actually enjoy doing all of that...
Oh yeah...if you're 95% of everybody - and let's face it, the odds dictate that you are - I won't add you. If you don't email me, the chances of me adding you rapidly approach zero. If you're not from LA and you don't email me, there is absolutely no chance in hell. If you're not going to affect my REAL life in any way, I won't add you, because, well, that's just a waste.
And one last thing...if you can't do "your and you're" or "there, their, and they're", or if you think it's "supposably"instead of "supposedly" or "could of, should of, would of" rather than "could have, should have, would have" I'm gonna think you're dumb. Those aren't typos. They're an unintelligent neglect of the English language.
