I am here for Friends

About Me

I'm a dork...and I'm proud of that fact. I'm a sucker for confidence, pop culture, campiness, sushi, the occasional obscure reference and puns that can make even my dearest and truest of friends roll their eyes in humorous disgust. I think Otis Redding's TRY A LITTLE TENDERNESS is an example of musical perfection...Peter Saville's album art-visual perfection...the Mediterranian diet and a rare steak-culinary perfection...clean sheets line dried-olfactory perfection...a strong man's hand on the small of your back as he leads you around the dance floor-physical perfection. If my soul had a sound, it would be the sax break in WOOLY BULLY being blared from a hunter green Morgan Plus 8 with the top down, while speeding down a coastal road on a crisp autumn day...This profile was edited with Thomas' myspace editor™ V2.5

My Interests

Photography, silk screening, art, i'm a fan of rooting through other peoples trash to see what treasures I can find, spending hours and too much money in record stores, impromptu roadtrips, the social side of cooking, seeing how far and how fun a day can be financed only by the change and lint in my pockets

I'd like to meet:

Anyone that can face the everyday and still come home with a smile on their face and a skip in their step...and of course Christopher Walken.
