I think I love Earlimart more than Earlimart loves Earlimart.

About Me

I think I was born a little too trusting, but I like to give everyone a fair shake until you’ve proven to me otherwise that you’re a jerk (you a**holes know who you are). I am a horrible liar and gullible as hell. I have questionable judgment when it comes to television. I have an odd fascination with bacon that borders on love. I wish I had more money and less responsibility. I like to pretend I know how to play the guitar. I can't wait to go back to Europe next spring. I hate traffic jams when it isn’t rush hour. I detest being seen in my piece-of-crap Hyundai, but I will kick your ass if I ever hear you talking smack about my car. I can change a flat tire but can’t load the dishwasher. I love hearing Chris Pointus laugh on Wildboyz. I want to live in Pottery Barn but for now I buy my furniture on Craig’s List. I think it’s a crime that the new Lamborghini is now available as an automatic. I like to stay up late but am also very partial to sleeping in. I am friends with famous people. I have a history of making drunken toasts to my upper torso. I probably know more about binary logistic regression than you do. I often feel overwhelmed with my life.

My Interests

International travel.

Music:

I'm from Seattle, so anything goes. Favorites most often include Earlimart, Death Cab for Cutie, The Automatic, Coldplay, Ben Taylor, 3 Days Grace, Sean Lennon, The Empire, Linkin Park, Anitgone Rising, Miles Davis, Jefferson Airplane, 8 Stops 7, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, and Sarah Harmer. And I don't care what they say, techno does not make good driving music.

Movies:

SciFi or action thrillers. I hate the romantic comedy genre and wish it would go away. Being raised by two older brothers may have something to do with that. I love Three Iron, Natural City, Pitch Black, The Professional, and cast a hesitant vote for Kingdom of Heaven only because Liam Neeson's in it. Oh, and I think I'm in love with Sean Bean but he hasn't returned my phone calls yet, so I don't think it's going to work out.

Television:

Crank Yankers. 24. Dave Chappelle. HBO's Rome. Sunday night football, baby!!

Books:

Anything by Walden or Tolstoy, and I also love The Black Arrow by Robert Louis Stevenson, the Ender's Game series by Orson Scott Card, Behind the Attic Wall, and the Mode Series. If you see me in the airport, I may have broken down and bought a fashion mag, but if you tell anyone, I will deny having ever seen you.

Heroes:

My brother.
