About Me

CURRENT MISSION

L-I-F-E.

ABOUT ME

A good hang. I'm a really good guest, too.

PHILOSOPHY

"This is ridiculous. I know life, the way humans live it, is absurd more often than not, and I don't particularly mind. I rather like the smell of absurdity in the morning. At the onset of a potentially dull day, a whiff of the genuinely ludicrous can be exhilarating. But this situation is too much. It's too much for me. It's stupid. I admit, I kind of enjoyed it at first, the sheer unexpected outlandishness of it, but now the novelty has definitely worn off, it's become a prime-time drag, it's drying up my spirit of wahoo."
