I'm finding it really hard to give a shit right now

About Me

You ever noticed how people who believe in Creationism look really unevolved? You ever noticed that? Eyes real close together, eyebrow ridges, big furry hands and feet. "I believe God created me in one day" Yeah, looks liked He rushed it. - Bill Hicks
Some words that describe me at the moment :clueless, happy, bitter, sarcastic, poor, joyful, funny, poor, beginning runner, love long walks on the beach with stroke victims. I love knowing the bartender on a first name basis and girls in summer dresses. I'd rather be in a quiet bar drinking cheap beer than in a loud club screaming at the top of my lungs and going huh a lot. I've become a bit of a political junkie, probably because of the sorry ass way Americas Affairs have been run in the last 6 years.I have six 15 cameras but never find the time to use any of them. Supposedly I'm a web designer and also work in print media. Print Media being a nice way of saying I work at American Classifieds as a production monkey. Don't write me asking rates cause I haven't a clue and I don't care. I have the ability to work out four days a week for five months and see absolutely no change whatsoever.

My Interests

web design, flash, women, dancing girls, Night Photography, sushi, biographies, regular photography, pin-up girls, fashion chics, fashion photography, girls in summer dress are the bees knees, music, drinking, reading, people watching, Frida Kahlo, women, history, painting for some reason,Jackson Pollock, travel, walking and exercise, Jazz, food, music, Guinness Stout, PBR, cooking, wine, nothing says drunken refreshment better than Grolsch, beer maidens are hot, movies , good movies of fuck, just about everything interests me from contraceptives to flyswatters.

I'd like to meet:

photographers, movie makers, musicians, music freaks, smart people, girls, girls, girls and bellydancers, models, PEOPLE THAT READ, artist, full blown whack-a-loons, 80's night dancers, girls with glasses (I will make passes), drinkers, all night Zombies, Hunter S Thompson fans, music lovers, surfers, lovely ladies, Prince Fans, Henry Millers Ghost, people that are also bored out of their heads
