Burning for the ancient heavenly connection
to the starry dynamo in the machinery of the night

I don't know what the hell to put in here, either you already know my history, or you don't care...so I'm just gonna put things in here about me as they occur to me, or whenever I have time to kill.
I say things without thinking about them first, and sometimes those things can be...odd. Or really odd. The friends I have either think it's funny or ignore it. Plus now that I'm working mornings at a place that gives me caffeinated beverages for FREE, it's gotten even worse. Or even more awesome. Either way.
I'm somewhat clumsy, and working with hot milk and coffee makes for interesting work stories. Apparently to some of my friends doing clumsy things, like spilling acrylic paint on their hardwood floor, is endearing. I don't get it, but I like that they are understanding when I fall down their stairs.
I talk sometimes in funny voices, and I like mimicking people. This means that sometimes talking to me is like being in something like an episode of Sesame Street on acid. New slang words and voices get added frequently so come back often. It's got a life of its own, who knows where the phrase "like ten dudes" came from, but I say it now. Whatever.
I read a lot, I love words and I think that if you know 'em you should use 'em. Wanna know what lenticular means? Or orthorexic? Or expatiate? I can tell you and then try semi-successfully to use it in a sentence. Vocabulary is a disease. But a wonderful one.
Along with the word geekery there is also the video game geekery. I play WoW, enough that it could be called "hardcore" I guess. Ownz multiple consoles, and still use 'em all. I love my computer and I love my friends. Without the computer I would have lost some due to distance and wouldn't have made some due to distance. I have social skills, and I leave my house, so unless you know leave the armchair psychiatry to those with degrees.
Am currently having fun pretending to be a big kid but normally the pretending just goes down the tubes and I start playing video games and laughing at potty jokes again. It doesn't help that the apex of humor at my work is "Your mom" jokes.
