About Me

So I work as an IT consultant in Louisville, KY...Music is far and away my favorite hobby / interest...If it isn't heavy then there is a good chance I'm not interested in it, though some exceptions do apply...And when I say heavy I mean death, black, and doom metal...Death metal is by far my favorite genre, preferably something technical along the lines of Decapitated, Necrophagist, Death, Neuraxis, etc...Sometimes I'll throw in a little power metal just to satisfy my inner fantasy obsession...I've almost given up on hardcore because all the bands I liked seem to have broken up...I watch a lot of movies too...I don't watch TV because I cannot stand commercials and news updates...I do buy TV shows on DVD though...Six Feet Under is without a doubt the best show of all time...I'm re-watching Twin Peaks for the third time in the past year right now since season two was "officially" released...I gave up caffeine for a good 8 months after enduring what I'll sum up as "a long story" that involved lots of knives...Now I'm back on the wagon (or is it off?), but only on the weekends so I can stay up late and slay demons (or eat power pellets, depending on my mood)...I'm really slipping up as of late though because I've been drinking Coca-Cola during the week (!!)...I have a good habit (if it were bad then I wouldn't do it, right?) of buying pillows / sheets / blankets all the time...Given the way that I like to bury myself, I feel as though I may have been a Monty Mole in a past life...I cannot stand being cold...I am trying to get back into the habit of running again...I love to play basketball, but a few weeks ago my goal blew over and now I have a bent rim...I suppose it adds an extra challenge to things...I have a kitty and she does not like getting wet but looks so funny when she does...Her name is Juno and the name was discovered from the movie The Descent, but was not chosen as an 'homage' or anything...I recently found my pheasants and now they guard a purple lava lamp that I claimed as my own when it was left on my doorstep...I feel that everyone should take two hours out of their life and play The Guardian Legend...That's all I got, send me a message for the rest...
