I don't watch TV. I have chosen to read books or write (though when I did watch TV, I couldn't tear my eyes away from Law & Order)

I'm a nice little read. I love books, I love writing, I love movies. I like INTERESTING and respect humor when delivered well and wit when it exists. I'm rude on some occasions, sensitive on others, funny when it suits me, horrendously confused when it doesn't. Currently attempting to play the guitar and sing one fucking note correctly, but perhaps I'm just meant to write words that sound nice when read aloud and leave the rest to musicians. However, karaoke is excluded from the "do it only when you do it well" category, thus i dive into that pleasure every week. "DON'T FUCK WITH MY PLAY!" If I see you around, I'll say "hi" or maybe even "hello."
