About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To study all of the wonderful facets of life that make life wonderful in all of its facets.

ABOUT ME

All about me? Well, the stuff I know is that I just started on the journey of journeying. I love meeting people. I love having a good time. I am generally laid back, goofy, and will launch into diatribes about the meaning of existence if you really want to breach the subject. I try to be respectful of others things and privacy. But mostly I just enjoy life as much as I can.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is to short to worry about personal philosophies, just live, man.

... wait, that's not a personal philosophy is it? aw crap.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Right now I am just a random traveler. I hope to one day get my own couch in Chicago that I can share with you, but until then, my home is whatever couch cushion I lay my head on.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Met some great people and some fantastic hosts. I'll give it a 23 out of 15.

Interests

Frisbee, Baseball, Sporting Events of all shapes and sizes, Writing, reading, Living, bad jokes and sarcasm, carpentry, and anything else I can think to do at the time.

  • writing
  • reading
  • socializing
  • baseball

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy many kinds of music. I love short fiction and read a good deal of that, Sherman Alexie, Hemmingway, Raymond Carver are among my favorites. I have to say any film with a thought provoking and intelligent script is worth my attention, eg. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

That's tough. I'm still blown away when I wake up in the morning.

I'm not really amazing person, and the list of things I've found amazing in my life would stretch on for far too long.
