I am here for Friends

About Me

I haven't been on Myspace in months. In other news, I still love music and reading (I'm surviving on a steady diet of Kurt Vonnegut and Chuck Palhuinik, or however you spell it.) I will start my college career at SEMO in less than a month, and I will be officially moving to Cape Girardeau, where I will found the greatest rock band since Led Zeppelin, write a novel, win a Nobel prize for it, and move to France with my hyper-literate super model common law wife. That's the plan for now. Let's see, the Durango's still running fine, and I'm happy as can be. That should suffice.

My Interests

Reading, writing, riding, music (listening to and participating in), hanging out with friends and family and generally getting a kick out of life.

Potpourri

First, I belive a bit of clarification is in order. The word "potpourri" is French for "jar of rot", which probably shouldn't surprise you. Now that we have gotten that out of the way, on to bigger an...
