CURRENT MISSION

I have a lot of trouble being anything close to normal... I think I was born on the wrong planet

ABOUT ME

I'm a very trusting person. I'm the kind of person who trusts somebody by default. No matter how many times I've given somebody my trust and they have violated it, I continue to trust people.

On a completely different topic, I think amish people are really cool. But I'm not sure. Not because I doubt that they're cool, but because I just don't know for sure yet. I saw an amish girl wearing soap shoes once. SOAP SHOES. If you're amish and you want to surf with me, drop me a line. I want to meet you and learn how to pop sick ollies and grind rails. I won't tell anybody you totally used a computer to couch request me. Unless of course you by chance asked a friend to print out the pages and then mailed me a request. Which would be about the most f***ing awesome thing I could possibly imagine.

PHILOSOPHY

The things you own end up owning you

...I got pwnd by my toaster oven once, raisin bread was EVERYWHERE

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Please don't apologize for an uncomfortable couch or not having 1000 thread count egyptian linens. When I was dead broke in college I slept in a parking lot underneath a car and showered with a garden hose for a half a summer. I've slept in standing water, igloos, and trees. Don't worry about me. Really.

Interests

when I get really antsy I stack kitchen items in piles

Music, Movies, and Books

music: new kids on the block, old kids on the block, blocks on a block, anything with the word block in it basically

movies: honestly I just saw kill bill a couple weeks ago. I still can't get over how much I love pai mei. I want to shave his eyebrows off and use them to chop my carrots.

books: kindle, you are the antichrist. I will fight you to the last breath in this body, and the next. you can pry the last tattered page of my supermarket romance novel from my cold dead hands. every day, the weight of the paper books in my bag will only serve to tone and shape the muscles in my arms, an instrument I so pine to one day use to thrust my tumescent knuckles through your 100 dollar screen and into padding of the headrest of the adjacent airline seat.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It turns out if you put a can of tuna and a slice of cheese on top of a ramen noodle brick and put it in the microwave for 3 minutes on high, you get tuna casserole.

There is a God.

Teach, Learn, Share

When it was over, all I could think about was how this entire notion of oneself, what we are, is just this logical structure, a place to momentarily house all the abstractions. It was a time to become conscious, to give form and coherence to the mystery, and I had been a part of that. It was a gift. Life was raging all around me and every moment was magical. I loved all the people, dealing with all the contradictory impulses - that's what I loved the most, connecting with the people. Looking back, that's all that really mattered. ...that and the all-you-can-eat $7.99 sunday brunch buffet.
