-Listening to lots and lots of music. I go to shows as frequently as possible.
-Anything even remotely involving ice hockey
Music
I listen to such a vast array of music that it'd be futile to even try to confine it to the space this section offers. I jump from Iron and Wine to Eyedea & Abilities faster than you can say "Blood and Thunder".
As of the time of this writing the iPod has 11,910 tracks, on 853 albums, by 624 artists, and would take 31 days, 16 hours, and 28 minutes of continuous listening to get through every song.

Breakfast? Breakfast, shmreakfast. Look at the score for god's sake. It's only the second period and I'm winning 12 to 2. Breakfasts come and go Rene, but Hartford, The Whale? Hey, they only beat Vancouver once, maybe twice in a lifetime.

Very few people address me by my first name. I've never eaten an entire salad in my life. My relationship with the Chicago Blackhawks is a sordid tale of deception, intrigue, and redemption. I make an effort to go to at least one White Sox game every homestand. Jameson and ginger ale is the most delicious and deadly combination of beverages known to man. I wear the fact that I am born and raised in the Chicago area like a badge so much that I went out of my way to purchase a hoodie that literally displays the Chicago city flag as a badge. I will not wear shorts if there is any possible way I can avoid doing so. I am widely recognized as the Directions King of North America. You want me on your team in Trivial Pursuit, you need me on your team in Trivial Pursuit; euchre, however, is an entirely different story. It is not wise to badmouth hockey around me. I'll never understand why Hum's album Downward Is Heavenward didn't sell millions of copies. I have zero problem with the numerous heterosexual man-crushes I harbor. I do not suffer stupidity or banality well. Ostentatiousness is a sign of overcompensation and insecurity. So are big words.
Who I'd like to meet: Anyone that won't ask me in a social situation to fix their computer for them.
Nice to see you at that shitty bar on Friday. A group of friends is pressuring me into attending a Blackhawks Sunday matinee sometime in March. We can combine forces and take over a whole section, methinks.
Also, let me know if you are ever out in the Palatine area. We can drink expensive beers together at my place.
Hey buddy, I think I am going to Finn McCool's tomorrow night around 8:30/9ish. Not sure where you are going to be out, or how far that is from your place, but just letting you know. If you can make it awesome, if not no problem. Later man.
