ABOUT ME

Well, right now I'm in the midst of a year of soul searching. I'm learning that trying to figure out who you are is either tremendously difficult or incredibly gratifying, but generally just a whole lot of umph. The only speed hump I've hit thus far has been my own pride. For me, I feel like its a very good time to explore my world, both the enormous globe we all share, and whatever odd universe it is which occupies the mind. **Update: My eternal soul is being suffocated by the rigors of graduate school, and I am destined never to leave this accursed land again, but while I'm here, let's FIX IT...
