About me: though people let me down, i still have faith in them. i love dark chocolate. i don't believe in much besides myself. music is what makes me see clearer. when wronged, i don't it let go... ever. my favorite sonnet is "my mistress's eyes are nothing like the sun's". i am everyone's dirty little secret. i am pure as the driven snow.
Who I'd like to meet: kindred spirits and those who do more than talk.

Why on earth you gotta get up in my face that way? I wasn't bitchin', not today. Just dreaming about pretty girls with big boobs drinking beer. You gotta problem wit' dat?
This comment is to apologize. You appeared in my dream last night & it was beyond inappropriate. I woke up riddled with guilt & ashamed of my self-conscious which is being accordingly punished. Should I appear in one of your dreams, please slap me &/or throw a drink in my face. I would apologize to your boyfriend as well, but I detest the man.
yeah, I'm a douche. A non-game-show-post party-attending douche. I hope you can forgive an Irishman, one who is willing to come by on a Monday to your place of employment, enjoy a meal, and tip about 60% on the bill. Does that in any way alleviate my debt to you?......
