i dunno.

About Me

i resisted joining myspace forever, because it didn't seem to serve any purpose. i actually signed up once before and deleted the account after one day because i couldn't take all the stupidity. after that, i swore i'd never touch the place again, especially with the increased media attention that comes with idiots trying to pick up underaged girls and talking about killing people. friends of mine in real life and the internet tried to get me to join, but i kept saying no until one of them put forth the theory that i only refused to join because i like the attention that comes with people trying to get me to join. since i am nothing if not a contrarian, at that point i figured the gig was up and i may as well join. i didn't anticipate keeping this one up as long as i have, but that's what i did and now since i log onto this thing multiple times per day, i must be fully assimilated. fuck.

Heroes:

i think i was supposed to put my parents here or something? i mean that's what everyone else does and so i feel kinda bad about not doing it, but although i do love my parents, to call them my heroes would be a bit too strong. but people i would call heroes are james hetfield, john bonham, stanley kubrick, mike patton, david cronenberg, dennis hopper, michael palin, sam peckinpah, and probably a few more.

My Blog

a shocking revelation (mostly copied from livejournal)

i spend too much time on the internet. say, for instance, when i message someone on myspace, or send a facebook friend request. i'm surprised that they don't answer me back within a few hour...

that last post probably did sound a bit, uh...cho-ish, for lack of a better term. but two hours of sleep will do that to you. it's amazing what actually sleeping through the night will do for you....
