| Bio: | This is the part where I say a bunch of crap about myself.
My goal is to turn my boring work-a-day life into the Next Great American Novel.
No, I will not really do this.
I don't use LJ cuts and I like to write so you'll probably think ninety percent of my LJ posts are too long.
If you're one of those people who don't like tons of sentences and get bored when people don't post pictures then go look somewhere else.
I've learned that the only way to actually know anybody is to listen to what they have to say instead of waiting for your turn to speak. If you want to hear what I have to say, maybe you should check out some things I've already said:
On Nights Like Tonight I Really Hate Rod Stewart - Of all the things I've written, this is hands down my favorite.
Like a Severed Head That Finishes a Sentence (Thank you, Amy Hempel.) - Everything I've ever learned I've had to learn again. One of the many - probably way too many - posts I've written about this subject.
Everything Reads Like Poetry if It Has the Right Alignment - E, DC, and Gay Meth Mouth. 'Nuff said.
I've got nothing to write about. I just wanted to write something. - I don't know what this is or what I intended but I still like it.
Black Coffee, Cigarettes, and a Stranger in the Casket - An attempt at ghostwriting someone else's story.
I'd Rather Be Famous Than Righteous or Holy - I write because I hope to have groupies one day. I want to be one of those balding hipsters in overpriced denim wearing a scarf and drinking Irish Coffee in a trendy Cafe au Booze. I want to give readings that will encourage impressionable young college girls to tag team me in the crowded restroom.
I like to ramble on whatever amuses me: drunken blackouts, involuntary pet ownership, media-inspired musings, my hockey games, shenanigans (the next person who says shenanigans gets my boot..), my never ending quest to get head from a midget hooker in a phone booth, etc...
You'll only find me interesting if you like what I write. I'm not one of those people that comments endlessly and I'll only post something if I've got something to say.
