About Me

Plain MySpace Layouts by Iron Spider
I'm an aspiring author of fantasy and horror novels and a bass player, but because I'm a little bit of a perfectionist, it's likely none of my works in either field will ever see the light of day. I'd even like to write a screenplay or something like that one day. Ambitious of me, I know. I sometimes use excessive amounts of profanity (for the son of a marine, I swear like a sailor), I smoke like a freight train, and I have a pretty deranged sense of humor- I once jokingly remarked something was as fun as kicking puppies in to a woodchipper. Yeah, that didn't go over well, but what the hell. I guess my one good quality would be that I'm unerringly loyal to those who earn my trust and would no doubt take a bullet for even the least of my friends without the slightest hesitation (well, maybe not Berger... I hope he doesn't see this).

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

TOOL. Hideo Kojima & Hironobu Sakaguchi, the geniuses behind the Metal Gear & Final Fantasy games. Tucker Max, but he would probably get drunk and make fun of me. Any musicians with the patience to work with/around my lack of real experience. Any woman who could put up with my antics for more than ten minutes and not run screaming for the door- it would help if she thought I was hot, too (Ha. Might as well hope for her to be made of solid gold while I'm at it). Anyone interested in animal sacrifice or ritualistic blood-letting in the name of the Dark Lord.J*zz In my Pants

On the subject of jobs...

Back to work. Well, at least it's just one, now. The restuarant couldn't give me the hours I need, so I just ended up going full-time at Game Exchange. And am I the only person who finds it ironic tha...

--Oroboros--

So much has been going on lately it has been hard to think clearly. I had to take a moment, step back, and study the situation to fully understand what was going on. Dad was in the hospital. Mom's bee...

A Work in Progress.

Another flash of lightning. Another explosive burst of sound, so close this time that little Timmy could feel the house shake from his bright red race-car bed. Storms like this had always scared Timmy...
