About Me

I like knowing that I'm in charge of my life and that even on a bad day I gave it my best effort. I like knowing that I'm strong, that everyday I fight is a day worth fighting for. I cherish loyal friends, my cat Ezra, books, books, and more books. I like good music; indie, electronica, rock, punk, and anything that I haven't had the opportunity to experience yet. I like being open to new ideas, and I enjoy discussing intellectual issues regarding life, love and all that's in between. I love riding my bike for 20 miles and then feeling completely rejuvenated. I enjoy walking the historical districts of cities for miles and exploring the architecture around me. I like being in love, but who doesn't.

I don't like anxiety or feeling that I'm a burden to the people in my life. I don't like it when it's hard to get out of bed if I'm depressed, when I can't slow my thoughts down to concentrate if I'm manic or when I feel like I want to die because I'm feeling a combination of the two. I don't care for cruel people, I despise sad songs, and I abhor people who think that they can control me and my disposition. I detest hate and anyone who has an intolerance of others and their ideas. I am not against religion, but I do not want to be recruited. My faith is terminate and stay-resident within me; not easily shaken by organizations or otherwise. I loathe manipulation and I won't tolerate it's presence in my world. I have a strong aversion to drama, it belongs in the movies, not in my space. Inarticulate individuals irritate me and I don't like being in love.
