About Me

ABOUT ME

I like my pancakes drowned in syrup and if it's an option, I want that syrup to be blueberry. Chicken Nuggets are in my top 3 favorite foods. I don't eat my crust and dip everything in ranch. I eat like a 10 year old boy and I love every minute of it. Cheesecake makes me melt, I need to be alone when I eat it... no seriously. Unless you're really special and then maybe, just maybe you can have a bite. No who am I kidding, you can lick the fork after I'm done with it. Italian food is where it's at though, no contest, number one on the list. The way to my heart is definitely through my stomach. It's a wonder I stay thin, but I am one of those bottomless pits, a shall we say, "fat kid at heart."

Currently I am in a perpetual state of looking for something, but have no idea what that something is. I have lots of plans, goals, ideas, and dreams. None of which will work out the way i plan them, cause let's face it, that's life. The only things that get me through, are A) my overwhelming curiosity for new experiences/adventures and B) finding the humor in this rather fucked up world we live in. I'm comfortable with who I am, but not with where I'm at. I need something new real bad.

The only thing sexier than confidence, is being confident while your naked. I've lived by that for years. It's kinda like a reversal of that whole "imagine the audience in front of you naked." Instead imagine your own crazy ass naked and keep that grin going. Naked time is always a good time.

My family is the best part of my life. I am the oldest of 7 siblings total, most of which live around the area. I could talk for ages about how each one is such an important part of my life, but everyones family should be that so I won't drag on. Each one is a crazy kind of blessing. Especially my 6 year old twin sisters, whom have changed my family for the better in so many ways.

Other than that, I'm a hippyish, semi-liberal, anti-government, artsy, flambouyant heterosexual. I walk almost every where and I like it that way. I'm a dork, crazy, spontanious, a hopeless romantic, and will until the day of my last breath be young at heart.

Interests

Learning, Laughing with you, at you, or at the expense of myself, blues piano, reading anything and everything, getting outside and enjoying the Seattle we all take for granted (this place is beautiful), staying fit, Theater, any kind of live performance, dancing (still waiting for some beautiful girl to come along and teach me to salsa)... Mostly I simply try finding ways to make every moment entertaining.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all movies, even the bad ones. Fight Club (of course) and anything by brad pitt for that matter, the man can do no wrong. V for Vendetta, Love actually, Illuminata, Oh brother Where art thou, Seven, Across the Universe, Moulin Rouge, American History X, Grandma's Boy,I know nearly all Disney songs/movies by heart... ...don't ask how or why. I'm a true fan of stand up comedy. Daniel Tosh and Nick Swardson top the list. I love most all musicals (I blame it on years of theater) and The Die Hard Trilogy (John Maclain is my hero).

Television- I officially disown tv/the news and everything it stands for.
the end.

Books- I'm such a dreamer, and books feed that addiction very nicely. I have read a lot a lot, but as for some favorites... Everything by Chuck Palahniuk, The Dark Tower Series by Stephen King, The Giver, Perfume, Anything by the Dalai Lama, Dharma Punx, The Wasp Factory and many many more.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I travel all the time and all around the United States for work, there are countless stories in that alone. I built houses for the poor in Mexico for several years when I was younger. Definitely a life changing experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

Computer and electronics savy. I'm a story teller if such thing exists anymore. I can and will make you laugh and smile... nothing is a better thing to learn than to just let go and be happy with where you are at, with what you have.
