About Me

I am a big kid! I still play video games and jam the radio when I drive. I hate to work, even though I do it everyday. I once had a dream of becoming a novelist. Who knows? Maybe I will go back to that passion for writing I once knew. I have had a few rough years but things are improving dramatically and I am close to being myself again. I have a pretty much carefree attitude and I don't like too much attention from others (attention and affection are two totally different things!).

My Interests



I'd like to meet:



The Classic IQ Test My Result: Insightful Linguist You are gifted with the natural fluency of a writer and the visual and spatial strengths of an artist. Those skills contribute to your creative and expressive mind.

Insightful linguists can take complex concepts and articulate them to just about anyone. You have a gift with words and insight into processes and the way people think. These talents enable you to explain things clearly to people. Helen Keller is a great example of an Insightful Linguist. Blind, deaf and mute, she was still able to put things together in her mind and to understand complex ideas. She could do that because she was able to conceptualize ideas internally. Though she could not literally see, she had the visual and spatial skills necessary to understand patterns on an abstract level. She learned to read, write and ultimately became a writer on issues of social justice.

You have an uncanny ability to work your way out of sticky situations using your talent with words. Crossword puzzles, debates — you're particularly well equipped to come out on top since you can read people well.

Like Charles Dickens, your verbal skills go far beyond having a good vocabulary. Dickens' genius was in the artful and descriptive way he crafted sentences. Also Dickensian, is your keen eye for detail and your adeptness for identifying the best way to express an idea based on your given surroundings and circumstances.

Your ability to communicate your vision clearly will take you far. So enjoy being perceptive, and make the most of your abilities as an insightful linguist. Take this test
How Sinful Are You?

Music:



You Are Absinthe
You are a sloppy drunk, purposely so
If drinking doesn't make you feel crazy, it's not any fun
Truth be told, you tend to prefer drugs to drinking
But you'd never pass up any absinthe that came your way! What Alcoholic Drink Are You?

Movies:



Television:

I can't say that I have any TV shows I watch religiously. I love family guy tho. I take interest in political/world news events, and I watch Ghosthunters and Most Haunted sometimes.

Books:

Anything by Richard Matheson. I love Edgar Allen Poe.Anne Rice is WAY overrated.

Heroes:



"Death is nothing at all- I have only slipped away into the next room. Whatever we were to each other, that we are still. Call me by my old familiar name, speak to me in the easy way which you always used. Laugh as we always laughed together. Play, smile, think of me, pray for me. Let my name be the household word that it always was. Let it be spoken without effort. Life means all that it ever meant. It is the same as it was; there is absolutely unbroken continuity. Why should I be out of your mind because I am out of your sight? I am but waiting for you, for and interval, somewhere very near just around the corner. All is well. Nothing is past; nothing is lost. One brief moment and all will be as it was before- only better, infinitely happier and forever- we will all be one together with Christ."
