About me

i watch quarterlife (the show). i love it. i identify with exactly every character always (except danny and vanessa, who are assholes). how is it that they are all the same as me at all times?

through this site i found a wonderful girl named _re. she quickly became the only thing that strongly motivated me on a daily basis, so i moved 380 miles north, from delaware to boston, to be able to see her in person every day.

i am a musician who was once also a teacher and is now a little lost. i am not sure what i want my life's work to be (because i generally hate working any job), but i am getting a little closer to finding a potential "career" every day.

i spend some time playing the guitar; more playing along with songs and trying to figure out how to sing than actually writing material.

i hold a mild interest in writing. i have been fascinated by the works of aaron sorkin (most of which is about writers trying to write), tina fey, and steve martin. i hope to take a try at this one day. i should get a humanities degree first, i suppose.

i play poker as a mental exercise to keep myself sharp in the ways of strategy, observation, patience, wit, strength, and deceit. i hold a respect and a love for the game, and i express that respect and love by spending hours and money at it.

i believe that i should create.

Interests

music

i play the trumpet well, the guitar adequately, and the piano poorly.

i listen to indie rock, radio hits, and an ever increasing amount of hip-hop.

reading

i enjoy reading the new yorker for its content on current events, its cartoons, its film reviews, and occasionally its fiction. it reminds me of my old academic days.

i must admit to also spending time reading dry, mathematical texts to augment my skill at poker. theoretical arguments and hypothetical game theory exercises fascinate me.

films

mostly indie dramedy-types - before sunrise, rushmore, the american president, once, meeting people is easy...

Hey...you two are an item. We declared another couple the first official ql couple...oops. They got together 4 months ago and came public on the forum. Looks like we have two official couples.

Re...I once had someone ask me about my AMtrak trip to New Orleans. I told them to bring warm blankets and food.

i got a job!

Aug 20, 2008

just ten days into my nerve-wracking move to an entirely new place, i got hired somewhere!

symposium books, a little independent bookstore in kenmore square, boston, decided that i was the best candidate to run their store full time. it is owned by a husband and wife who also own a book warehouse and a similar store in providence, rhode island. the boston store has two employees, one full-time and one part-time. i am now the full-timer, which means i will be manning the store by myself 40 hours a week!

this all might work out, after all!
