About Me:
First off. I never check Friendster (Myspace.com/gimbel hint hint). I log on for the first time in ages (close to a year?) and it still says I'm in a relationship and now you can see who's been viewing your site? That's not right, is it? Running a business full time
(GardenOfSpeedin.com), one band
(RookieCardthemovie.com), a silly side project
(CoverMeBadd.com), and oh so much more. I love my friends and love it when they meet each other and hit it off (I've even
accidentally played matchmaker) so that's the main reason
I'm typing... Oh yeah, I am horribly shy (& apparently sarcastic).

Who I Want to Meet:

Friendster out of a sense of the humane.
Like when you give milk to puppies with
an eyedropper. I'm sure within another
few days, I will end up crushing it in a
fit of murderous rage. Or returning it
to its mother, who will eat it dead. You
can't defy nature, try as you might.

nor is he ever at his "very reliable,

tell you, that really chaps my hide.
But really, I love him anyway, and I
think you do too. (I just wanted a
chance to use the phrase "chaps my
hide.")
