Banana: May I stick your arm with a needle?

It doesn't matter whether you're successful or not; What matters is that you give the world the best

About Me

My Interests

Music, Italian, science, photography (Andrzej Dragan), skiing, outdoors, rain, tattoos, hiking, biking, computers, demented artists: Gris Grimley, Roman Dirge, Crab Scrambly.

I'd like to meet:

People who don't make me want to gnaw my arm off to escape the intense physical pain of being near them.

I love independent films: Pi, Spin, and Me You and Everyone We Know are some of my favorites. :P

Television:

For the most part, I hate TV. I watch two or three shows: House M.D., Scrubs, and Impact: Stories of Survival. I like books, memorizing the bones in the body, and/ or using the internet to research things like congenital disorders or the mating habits of Heterocephalus Glaber (naked mole-rats). The only thing I really like are those awkward medicine commercials that say side effects include blah blah blah death, but try it anyway!

Books:

Il Delfino, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, The Red Tent, Brave New World, Harry Potter, Terry Pratchett books, Fahrenheit 451, Lord of the Flies (as sick as it is), The Velveteen Rabbit, and some John Grisham books.

La scoperta di nuovi mondi non ti portera' solo felicita' e saggezza, ma anche tristezza e paura. Come puoi apprezzare la felicita' senza sapere che cos'e' la tristezza? Come puoi raggiungere la saggezza senza affronatre le tue paure? Alla fine, la grande sfida della vita consiste nel superare i nostri limiti, spingendoci verso luogi in cui mai avremmo immaginato di poter arrivare.

Broken hearts and stolen bikes

So, some miserable excuse for a human being stole my $1000 bike from my garage. I love feeling violated. If they would have stolen it from outside my house... fine. But, they went into my garage,...

Out of touch

So, I think I am officially out of touch with society. I work with some REALLY young girls. I don't get their conversations about how so-and-so did this or what so-and-so wore. Nor do I care. The...

Hahahahaha.... True.

WHEN GIRLS DRINK 1. We Have Absolutely No Idea Where Our Purse Is. 2. We Believe That Dancing With Our Arms Overhead and Wiggling Our Butt while yelling "Woo-Hoo!" Is Truly The Sexiest Dance Move ...

Temporary Bleeoooaggg!

This is funny. YOU fill in the blanks about ME even if you don't have any idea what they are and send it back to ME. But first post a blank one out to all your friends so they can return the favor to ...

Stupid people

So, this is just an angry rant... I was talking to a friend of mine tonight and mentioned to her that I just got hired at Starbucks. She was so upset with me for taking the job because I have a degree...

Power of Small Things

As I sit here in my restless state, I ponder the power of the smallest things. I was trimming back a neglected plant, which was in great need of care, and I picked seeds from the pods. As I looked at...

Burning Bridges... Celluloid and Smoke

Sometimes I wonder what goes through my head. I've done some pretty crazy things in my life and sometimes don't realize that I might be affecting others. I guess it's because I've been on my own for s...

Hilarious!

Chuck Norris' tears cure cancer. Too bad he has never cried. Rather than being birthed like a normal child, Chuck Norris instead decided to punch his way out of his mother's womb. Shortly thereafter h...

From a wise and good friend...

As a preface to this blog, I must say that I did not write this. I copied it from a friend's blog and, while it is not how I always feel, it is how I think many people feel at some point in their live...
