invariably city-stranded camper.
a warm walking minimalist bundle of contradictions
determinedly distracted / perpetually procrastinating
eternally trapped somewheres 'tween dirty and clean

PHILOSOPHY

~Punctuation is much like showering/shaving, while not a fondness, I fully embrace the necessity.

~Rain is just falling water, and everyone loves waterfalls

~I love the beer as much as, if not more than the next person, but we can do more, see more, be more.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

~survived thus far.
~on another occasion woke up with a hangover from homemade absynthe, hiked a mountain, brewery tour, party at redrocks, drove from colorado to minnesota, BBQed all day and then polka-ed all night with septu/octogenarians only to eventually flag down a school bus at midnight to give 20 of us a ride home, solid 54 hours without sleep.
~ watched a full moon set on Uluru (ayers rock) while the sun rose behind us.
