About Me

I'm not made to sit still and live in content with the way things are. The world's fucked up as it is, time to give a damn, you know? "Live your heart and never follow"

My Interests

The three D's: Drinking, drinking and drinking.

I'd like to meet:

Wounded, old, or just goodhearted souls.

Music:

Mostly songs with power chords and the occasional riff with lyrics sung in a gravelly voice usually about fucking things up or why things are fucked up. But more specifically, Hot Water Music, the Lawrence Arms, Against Me!, Dillinger Four, Jawbreaker, Small Brown Bike, etc...

Movies:

Roman Holiday is the perfect movie.

Television:

There's things to accomplish out there...flipping channels isn't one of them.

Books:

Roald Dahl. J.D. Salinger. Haruki Murakami. John Steinbeck.

Heroes:

Elliott Smith.

Glass

It was the way she said it. Walking into the South Street Seaport early this Tuesday morning, those words struck hard. I ended up smoking away my entire lunch hour. It was the only way I knew how to c...

Two nights

Two nights, the same route but taken with different mindsets. One in a manic fit of depression walking aimlessly around the city and one in a state of calmness that only a best friend can bring out. F...

One-sixth

She had both of her hands covering her slightly bent face. For about ten seconds she held that pose until I finally realized the problem. "Do you need a tissue?" I asked. She nodded her head with hand...

Last Thursday night around 10:00pm, I took my three year old dog Peanut Butter outside to go to the bathroom like I always do before I go to bed. I don't use a leash as I don't normally let him out ve...
