Me

Most of you that would even read this know me in some capacity already, I'm sure - otherwise, I can't imagine why you'd be reading this- so I figure it'd be sort of ridiculous for me to introduce myself to you here. That having been said though, I'd like to make this a place where I can talk pretty candidly about things and, since that's my goal here, I'm going to try and keep this as honest and uncensored as I can.

My goal here is to keep a record of myself as much as possible. So, basically, the things I do and the things I like. It's a vanity site about me, but I think primarily I want this to be for me and mine.

So, maybe its important for me to introduce myself, or at least lay down some sort of terms in which I see myself, so I'll make a list. I:

• am a self-aware, compulsive pathological smart aleck. This is by my own assessment, totally non-clinical and I'm not proud of it, but there it is just the same.
• am a book lover. I love to read books, fiction or non. I love to touch them. I love the smell and feel of them. I love being in places full of them. I collect bookstores like other people collect parks or views.
• am an entertainment junkie. I won't list them all here but the list of movies and television shows I love is long, long, loooooonng. But I'm also picky. Go figure.
• am family oriented more than most people think.
• enjoy horseback riding alone, but am not too much of a fan of riding with other people. Certainly not in a crowd.
• have social anxiety . I've never been diagnosed but I've struggled with since the beginning.
• am prone to fairly severe bouts of depression though I wouldn't say I "have depression." Again, not clinical in any way, shape or form, but I DID take an Intro to Psych course at NKU and feel I'm fully capable of a self diagnosis.
• love riding the bus as much as possible and really passionately hate driving.
• am really quite committed to start writing again.
• am horrible at finishing things. Really terrible at it actually.

That's not all about me. There's more but it's all I feel compelled to share right now.
