music (listening to, writing & playing), reading, cooking & eating, good movies, cartoons, videogamesi like pretty much anything that will let me escape from my thoughts for a while... i like the moon through fog in graveyards and sunsets that look like the end is coming...(please,please,please) i believe in the zombie apocolypse and am trying to help bring it out about (no, really) sometimes the simpsons make me cry... i love my friends so much it hurts, but am bad at showing it... if you can find me, i will always share any smokes, whiskey or food i have...
the lesson of the moth..... i was talking to a moth the other evening he was trying to break into an electric light bulb and fry himself on the wires...why do you fellows pull this stunt i asked him because it is the conventional thing for moths or why if that had been an uncovered candle instead of an electric light bulb you would now be a small unsightly cinder have you no sense...plenty of it he answered but at times we get tired of using it we get bored with the routine and crave beauty and excitement fire is beautiful and we know that if we get too close it will kill us but what does that matter it is better to be happy for a moment and be burned up with beauty than to live a long time and be bored all the while so we wad all our life up into one little roll and then we shoot the roll that is what life is for it is better to be a part of beauty for one instant and then cease to exist than to exist forever and never be a part of beauty our attitude toward life is come easy go easy we are like human beings used to be before they became too civilized to enjoy themselves...and before i could argue him out of his philosophy he went and immolated himself on a patent cigar lighter i do not agree with him myself i would rather have half the happiness and twice the longevity...but at the same time i wish there was something i wanted as badly as he wanted to fry himself...-archy
