About Me

"The principal horror of any system which defines the good in terms of profit rather than in terms of human need, or which defines human need to the exclusion of the psychic and emotional components of that need- the principal horror of such a system robs our work of its erotic value, its erotic power and life appeal and fulfillment. Such a system reduces work to a travesty of necessities, a duty by which we earn bread or oblivion for ourselves and those we love."

My Interests

I like to think and walk.. walk while I think. I can't describe the way sunshine makes me feel. I enjoy finding song lyrics by artists that are more articulate than I could ever hope to be, who can pinpoint an exact feeling or idea. I LOVE to travel. I like friends that I know so well that it's comfortable to sit in silence. I like friends that offer intelligent conversation alongside utter absurdity. I love my family with an intensity that brings tears to my eyes. I enjoy living my life and thinking about what that really means. I don't drive a car.

I'd like to meet:

Not sure, really.

Music:

The Beatles, Bob Dylan, it's elephant's, Neutral Milk Hotel, Radiohead, and Peter, Paul, and Mary.

Books:

I could go on forever.

Aint it strange.. How a man who lives for nothing can change.

I misrepresent myself or give an inadequate impression of myself. For fear of coming off crazy, I guess. Not quite, but the circles-sometimes, most of the time actually, I think about life in all it...
