How did it get so late so soon? Its night before its afternoon. December is here before its June. My goodness how the time has flewn. How did it get so late so soon?

drawing, music appreciation, meditation napping, computers, cats, guitar, friends, anagrams, pallindromes, animation, reading, dreaming, video games, or anything else that's generally escapist or helps me to avoid direct sunlight. Hobbies include: playing the guitar poorly, cat wrangling, parlant Français de niveau lyceé, sculpting small heads of strange hellish creatures, drawing cartoony characters, making maps for Counter-Strike (but not finishing them), playing a variety of video games and making juice. On top of that, I hate beets and love mechanical pencils.
Oh yeah, I like this terminally falling rag-doll lady here...

About me: Human. Male. Enjoys watching independent movies that explore themes of death and sexuality. Also enjoys documentaries about insects and nature, and cartoons that feature depictions of talking food. Attempting to reduce my yearly consumption of material goods. Will never be a big-shot and is okay with the fact. I went to Art school for several years, but dropped out because I couldn't stand the smell of lacquer thinner and getting paint under my fingernails. I try to think of myself as a non-conformist, but I find ways to conform a little every day just to spite myself. I may tell you what I think you want to hear to avoid hurting your feelings if I don't know you that well. Some people tell me I have a sick sense of humor. I tell some people my sense of humor is just a little tired and maybe just needs some vitamin C and a nap, but that it should be better in the morning. My nose is bigger on the left side, but otherwise I try to be symmetrical. I like sleeping in and prefer going outside at night because the air smells cleaner and there are less people honking their horns in the filthy LA streets.
Knowing other people is intelligence,
knowing yourself is wisdom.
Overcoming others takes strength,
overcoming yourself takes greatness.
Contentment is wealth.
Boldly pushing forward takes resolution.
Staying put keeps you in position.
To live till you die is to live long enough.

I am a Breakout Bat.
I am an abstract sort of creature, who dislikes any sort of restraint. If you try to pigeonhole me, I'll break the box, and come back for more. I don't have any particular ambitions, I just drift, but I am adept at keeping life going along.

I've been having weird dreams too (involving the likes of creepy monsters and getting kicked in the gut by a huge man. Also, I'm having a shitty fucking day. But I got a comment from you! And you make me smile. And have good vibes. So, there's that.
