About Me

"I don't drink these days. I am allergic to alcohol and narcotics. I break out in handcuffs."- Robert Downey Jr.

I'm a lover not a fighter. But, I'm also a fighter so don't get any ideas. I spend a lot of time in concerts because records might sound better than cd's, but live music is 1000 times better than either. I travel a lot and plan on traveling even more in the next few years while I'm still young and not "obligated." I know what I want in life and I like to surround myself with others that do.

My Interests

Art, music, graphic design, film, photography, or anything creative. I love wakeboarding, snowboarding, skateboarding, surfing, and pretty much any other boardsport.

I'd like to meet:

Interesting, quirky, creative, chill people. People who aren't afraid to be themselves. If you're over-dramatic, write a blog about it and don't bother friend requesting me. But, if you are cute rather than hot, clever rather than cool, dorky rather than bitchy, then I would like to meet you.

...and of course, no crazy stalkers!
