About me:

it takes a certain type of person for me to be outgoing and completely be myself. still haven't really figured out what quality in other people brings out my true personality. wish i could. on first impressions i usually come across as being shy, and somewhat reserved, which is only a small part of my personality. my thoughts are usually very clear in my head, but often get jumbled on their way out. certain things about me completely conflict with others. i'm a bit old fashioned, but at the same time i'm not afraid of change. i find humor in lots of different aspects of life, but somehow maintain a certain level of seriousness in other aspects. i can be a little critical of people that i love and care about. so take it as a compliment if i am. i obsess over music. it is my life, and has become the soundtrack to everything that i do in life. i'll listen to anything that i can connect with; lyrically or musically. music is what keeps me sane.

i hate greediness, gossip, and insincerity. other than that i can usually get along with almost anyone, even if we're completely different.

unfortunately i don't think there's any truer statement than "ignorance is bliss."

when i'm on I'M ON. when i'm off i suck at life.

oh yeah, i also enjoy time travel.

"you're talkin' a lot, but you're not saying anything. when i have nothing to say, my lips are sealed. say something once, why say it again?"
-talking heads

i have a blog that i rarely keep up with anymore: 742 Evergreen Terrace

also an outdated flickr page: Grimis

and i'm finally a member of last-fm: TommyTheLion

Who I'd like to meet:
liam lynch, henry rollins, ben folds, david bazan, ken andrews, matt mahaffey, conan o'brien, hank azaria, matt groening. anyone with heart, or passion for what they love.

David Bazan

"i'll get to where i'm going, pretty soon."

Who I wouldn't like to meet:
people who refer to white chocolate as "vanilla chocolate."

Hey- we were supposed to have a day in Boston before RI on the 28th, but now we are in RI only. 28th(day off) and 29th(show day), then New Hampshire on the 30th. Please feel free to come up on either or all of those dates, it would be fun! Let me know if you can make it happen. So mad we aren't in Boston anymore, but that's the way the tour goes. Grr. Keep me posted. Hell is for children.

I was dancing with Audrey to it today. He seems to have remained consistant with the last album, which I like. I also enjoy a lot of the one liners. He's a poet. Maybe a bit self involved but hey that"s okay! It will pass. All in all I like it. I'm waiting for him and Lucinda Williams to get together on a track or two.
Olivia comes back August 20. We miss her a lot! 3.5 wks is too long to be gone from Mommy.
Kisses.
che diavolo!
