i tell a lot of my story in pictures. the rest of it i tell in strongly worded essays directed mostly at someone i don't know yet, or possibly, myself.
if i'm ever in an armaggedon situation, the world is coming down around me and everything is hopeless, i think some part of me, (the part that has a giant crush on kurt wagner,) that part will be sure, right up until the very last moment, that spiderman is coming to save me.
i often think about what superpowers i would have if i had some.
since my set retired, i don't watch much television on an actual television. i usually forget to watch and then get to have an internet mini-marathon without having to wait every week; it's great. though i speak fluent pop culture, chances are i haven't heard of at least fifty-two percent of the latest news, pop wise. i don't go to many movies in theaters due to my entirely rational fear of dying on my way home late at night through killadelphia but as long as i stay away from Apple trailers, i feel pretty good about it...
okay, sometimes i really miss going to the movies but have you tried getting to a theater here? masochism.
i don't read blogs as a credible source of vital information though i do admit to a wikipedia addiction. i often feel like i'm failing at being part of my generation— whatever that is. i can never seem to keep my desktop cleared either i-r-l or my computer. i have to give myself extra time whenever i walk somewhere to allow for stopping every block or so to find something interesting on the ground or look at transformers or take a picture of an interesting bug. i hate being late but i often am. i'm working on that last one...
i'm probably reading right now.
when i say i listen to a little bit of almost everything, i mean with few exceptions, (death metal, pop-country, anything that reminds me of people i don't like) my 'tunes is filled with Gyuto monks, alt-pop and -rock, goth cello, "classical", angry girls singing, classic rock, pop, emo—though no screamo, madrigals and so on. i really like covers if they are well made and intriguing instead of just being a note-for-note repeat of the original. i listen to language lesson recordings of languages i don't know, like portuguese and greek. i like to imagine that i am absorbing them.
i don't think that all contrivances are necessarily a bad thing.
i like grammar and i like breaking its rules even more for knowing them.
if you spend longer than a few minutes in my company you'll most likely hear me say, "i don't know what that means/is."
i like to play scrabble and chess with people who can take me to school.
i do not use the word "love" unless i mean it. if you hear me abuse it, i owe you a dollar.*
*this offer void in tennessee and cannot be applied retroactively. all petitions of collection must be accompanied by two forms of photo ID and a cupcake.
i believe there are few things so terrible that they cannot be solved by the algorithm march.
i am an artisan, an art.ist, noun.
a person who practices any of the various creative arts.
