Heyyo, people. Well, I guess you want to hear a little about me. I mean, that's what this bio is for, isn't it? Anyway, there's a bit about myself on my webpage (see above) but I suppose it couldn't hurt to say a bit more. To start off, I've never really kept a consistant journal before, so I don't know how this is gonna go. On one hand, I can be really lazy. I mean, we're talking too-lazy-to-pick-up-the-remote-that's-sitting-right-next-to-me lazy. On the other hand, I'm perfectly capable of holding long conversations with myself, which could potentially make for some interesting entries. Of course, nothing interesting ever actually happens to me. ...So what are you doing reading this? Shoo! Go find something interesting! The Net's full of the stuff! Seek, and ye shall find!
You're still there.
Persistent little bugger, aincha? Well, I'll show you. I'll stop writing. How do you like THAT, huh?
...Oh, did I mention that I'm insane?

Been a while since I've gotten this thing, hasn't it? Well, I've found that I have a bit more to say, and it's not just that the website mentioned above, while it does still exist, really shouldn't and is now in the internet graveyard of abandoned pages. Now, more about me. I like to think of myself as a nice guy, and apparently other people do too. I rarely make friends-only posts, since I doubt anyone else would bother to read this stuff anyway. And anyone who would take enough interest, well, they can fend for themselves. I often use this journal to try to figure things out about myself, usually in the pretense of some anecdote, or an elaborate analogy. I love analogies. I usually have some trouble saying things about myself directly, and I don't know why yet. I think I'm afraid of hurting someone, probably usually me, but maybe sometimes someone else. Or maybe I'm just weird. I dunno. I want to spill my guts to the world, but I'm afraid to. I'm paranoid that someone will understand what I'm saying, but I'll be depressed if they don't...
Often, when I'm being mysterious like that, you can tell more from my 'current song' than from the entry itself. I can put way too much thought into choosing a song.
Actually, I put a lot of stock into music in general. I'm not a spiritual person at all, but there's something about music that really resonates with me. Especially oldies, but not exclusively. I can't really describe it, but something that can tap into emotions like that must be powerful.
On a final note, I often reflect the characteristics of my friends, even though they're often my friends because the reverse was true to begin with. This only makes sense if you've been around me for a while.
