I am here for Friends

About Me

Most importantly, I am the synth player for 51Peg (Hooray for shameless self promotion!!). I spend all of my "real life" hours as a bartender (or as I like to call it - professional adult babysitter) in Baltimore - The Drunkest City in America!! I love the people in this city- ANYTHING that happens here (snow, hurricane, elections, sports, Flag Day, Garbage day, etc.) is a reason to get WASTED. Talk about job security!! Other than that, I'm pretty sure I have OCD, I'm a vegetarian (but not an annoying one!), I love my cat, and I drink too much espresso vodka (Damn you, Van Gogh!!!)...

My Interests

writing noises for my Triton, reading verbose modern fiction, compulsive excercising, trying to break my wrists on Rollerblades, Pilates, ballet, being a non-annoying vegetarian, painting, getting in psuedo-intellectual political debates with drunk people (fun thing to do at a bar when you don't really drink!), loving my half-eaten, super-mutant houseplants, spending quality time with Carl Buckley (obese cat, and eater of houseplants), drinking coffee in dive diners in the middle of the night, and road tripping

I'd like to meet:

girls, boys, fictional beings, lumberjacks, musicians, cartoons characters (or those who wish they were), physicists, geeks (or nerds...I'm one! You should try it!), various types of senior citizens, authors, anarchists, musicians, meat inspectors, homeless kittens, and you!..

Movies:

..Where do you even start a list of favorite movies? I have so many movies that I love from when I was little (Return to Oz, Conan the Barbarian, Watership Down, Labrynth, The Dark Crystal, etc.) and then all the movies that I love now (The Deer Hunter, THe Virgin Suicides, Punch-Drunk Love, etc, etc, etc) I guess the answer is whatever I bought on DVD last week

Television:

..TV SUCKS!!! Except for The Almighty Fox News Channel, The Simpsons, and Adult Swim. Amen.

Books:

..anything by Douglas Coupland, Anthony Burgess, JG Ballard, CP, Jeffrey Eugenides, Irvine Welsh, and Hubert Selby Jr. "A Confederacy of Dunces" by John Kennedy Toole, Vladimir Nabokov, James Joyce, Christopher Marlowe, George Orwell, etc. Seriously, I will be here all day if I list all the authors or books that I like, but I suppose my current favorites are "The Jungle" and the works of Kurt Vonnegut (He's Dreamy!!!)

Heroes:

We all live in suspense, from day to day, from hour to hour; in other words, we are the hero of our own story. - Mary McCarthy
