one little earthling

About Me

I did not swim across lake Superior. I did not swim across lake Michigan. I did not swim across lake Ontario.

My Interests

personal space. aversion therapy.

I'd like to meet:

The princess of Monoco and the princess of Sweeden, mostly because they are really hot, but also because they probably have yachts, and I've never actually been sailing. I'm fairly sure that I could win them over with my charms, and as we sailed across the seas to some distant island, we could feed each other strawberries and blast empty champagne bottles out of the air like clay pigons.If this falls through, I would like to meet the person that stole my mp3 player in May of 2003 from my desk in the CS building after the 4041 final. I would like to ask them why they did it, and, after that, if they knew that I had a horrible ear infection at the time (I didn't have a horrible ear infection at the time, but I feel they deserve one nonetheless).If that, too, fails to happen, I would like to go into the future like 15-years and ask myself if I should be having more hot sex with girls now, or if, like, I should just wait a while and pay more attention to school.

Music:

joy zipper, the secret machines, sutekh, the decemberists, the dresden dolls, the mountain goats, autechre, richard villalobos, azure ray, broken social scene, sonic youth. also things that make me want to rock out.

Movies:

mostly I like movies that allow me to experience my repressed masculinity. or movies about people that I wish I could be.

Television:

the outdoor life network

Books:

highlights

Heroes:

people who do the little things. by that i mean people like gulliver. also, linda lovelace and charles bukowski. the former may hate herself, and the later may be dead, but they pushed the envelope and i respect that.

musings on jobs. again.

So I just got back from my first day at my first 9-5.  A few days after my old job evaporating, I was offered an interview at bigideas.com/moco.  It's about a 15minute walk from my house and...

musings on jobs

I woke up today after a couple hours of restless sleep.  I woke up happy, though.  I'm trying to maintain that.  None the less, upon my dawn-hour checking of email, I doscovered that I ...

motivations or something

So I was thinking about writing a short story today, but as I sat down I remembered procrastination.  Needless to say I've read all of mcsweeney's.  Maybe I'll have something tomorrow? ...

doh

The new job offer requires that I be enrolled for at least 6 credits, and being in school has been suggested by everyone I've talked to lately as a big nono. So I'm going to be working at a cafe up h...
