you succeeded in exposing my sinister plan to lock myself in a dungeon, chained to an albino.

About me:

goal in life: the phrase "cult legend" will precede my name in my epitaph (legitimately).

some people tell me that i'm fun to be around. i call them "friends" because calling them "liars" isn't nice. i'm misunderstood a lot. i spend my days/nights working at a recording studio, which is will really make you re-think how much you like music some days. that being said, i'm one of those cliche people who moved to LA with his band to "make it." a lot of people would say i'm anal retentive, maybe even borderline OCD... i think i just wield incredible powers of organization. sarcasm is funny, and i can lay it on thick. the same thing goes for self-deprecating humor. "ice, ice baby" and "turtle power" may quite possibly be the greatest hip-hop songs ever written. i don't like cheesecake. apparently, i'm the only one. i say the word "interesting" a lot. i've been to snoop dogg's house,. i rode the short bus (yes, that short bus) my entire junior year of high school because it was the only public transportation that came by my house. the only thing i hate is glitter. i don't dance very well. i'd rather wear glasses than contact lenses. and i have more black t-shirts than all of the guys in metallica put together.

Who I'd like to meet:

someone with a lot of patience. and people who still make it a point to read books. and these guys...
