About Me |
|
i hate when people tell, like, 76 jokes in a row, and i find that at some point, i began laughing just to be polite. it makes me feel trapped. i have a very specific sense of humor. i know i cannot expect everyone to fit into the parameters of my own personal comedic needs. which i why i continue to laugh. politely. i have an extensive collection of serial killer encyclopedias and martha stewart cookbooks. i have the same combat boots i bought fourteen years ago. certain aspects of my life are drowned in paradox. i am so incredibly cheap that instead of buying new shoes, i simply repair my decimated ones with superglue and staples. ummm. . .let's see. want to know how i got here? My dad got a drama degree in NC and moved into a basement apartment in New Orleans which he shared with the owner’s pet duck. Coupling his talent for face paint application with a penchant for quite literally acting his way out of a paper bag, voila! A street mime was born. My dad performed everywhere from inside department store displays to the Riverwalk alongside the Mississippi to upscale private parties. Alas, my mother, in attendance for one of these parties, accomplished something as yet unheard of during my father’s career. She made the mime talk. After performing as a mime-duo for two years, my mother in braids and a beret, and my father in mutton chops and a faux-sailor’s getup, they decided, albeit silently, to take their relationship to the next level. They were married on February 23, 1980. Their first child was promptly born seven months and twenty six days later, but they swear to god she was premature. When others doubt the validity of this statement, my mother, to this day, will only cryptically answer, “I couldn’t get him to DO anything before we were married!” Amanda entered this world a belligerent four pound blob closely resembling a bowl of oatmeal. She hung out in an incubator for a little while, and in my opinion, the solitude she experienced there set her up quite nicely for a lifetime devoted to the boycott of interpersonal relationships. Then after the rain, I moved here to Chapel Hill, and I love it more than life itself. |

My Interests |
|
| . making lists of things (any things). i like how advil caplets taste like grape candy. but i hate grape flavored candy. i collect people's conversations. i'm lonely, i like mail order catalogs, serial killers, failing to grow plants, finding grammatical errors the silence of the telephone the special features on DVDs. i like trying to figure out if people are really happy just by watching the way they carry themselves. i like watching people squirm. |

I'd like to meet:1. someone who has seen "the house of yes" and liked it. "the house of yes" may be substituted with "return to oz" or "the peanut butter solution" if need be.2. someone who will bring me three Flan Cups from the far right cooler in La Potosina on Rosemary Street. I will need a plastic spoon also. 3. someone who has been to Dollywood. and NO, graceland does NOT count. STOP. if you are a girl and you fit 1-3, we will be best friends. if you are a boy, i will marry you, so be ready. also, i like drummers. and as far as boys, i like them relatively bizarre, a tiny bit helpless, and i prefer for them to accessorize with messenger bags, fine-line art pens, giant sunglasses, and that kind of haircut that's all wispy and flippy and cowlicked. Must use "Post-modern" as a verb on a regular basis.and yes, i know my HTML is showing. i like it that way./table, td {background-color:transparent;border:none;border-width:0;} I have lots of acquaintances, but barely any friends. |
