About Me

phey everyone... the best way to get to know me is www.toddicus.com. i'm an author and a poet. i was voted best local entertainer in houston for 2007 and have my own show every sunday and wednesday night at guava lamp at 10pm. actually, it's your show- you get to sing and i get to make you laugh. i recently had the cast of 'rent' at my show as well as 'mama mia', 'STOMP!', and 'beauty and the beast,' to name a few musical guests. i'm in love with inner and outer space- the moons of jupiter and saturn... i love being outdoors as much as possible. ive been a vegetarian for 20 years. i love going to the gym. i love holding hands. i love siouxsie and the banshees, morrissey, and kate bush (that's just a start!) i love cocktails and going to clubs at night. i love bloody marys and tanqueray and tonic. i love to travel. i love gardening, i love driving fast with the top down, i love hot weather and beaches, and i love any country south of texas. don't be suprised if you see me at a table with a group of people and one person calls me "tito" and another "toddicus" and yet another calling me "todd". my mom was born in peru, south america and the latin culture dubbed me the name "tito" early on... i like people who know the difference between "you're" and "your" and the differences between "their" and "there" and "they're". i think we learned that in elementary school last i checked. it's certainly ok to mess that up IF YOU'RE FOREIGN. i love to fall in love. i love to curl up and watch the stars with nature's telelvision turned on- a fire, of course. i love being a pisces and i especially love being me.IF YOU SEND ME A FRIEND REQUEST you need to SEND ME A MESSAGE TOO or I WILL NOT check friend requests. too much spam! and if i see you out somewhere and you're like "you never approved my friend request" and i didn't receive a message, then i'll know that you only need friends to add to your numbers and you didn't actually take time to read my profile. poopheads.
