YDARLINGNIKKIY



all the songs in the player are ones im singing on.

im an obsessive, ambitious, clumsy, manipulative person with publicly documented inability to control my anxiety.

I dont believe in owning objects just to own them, and i have maybe 3 things i own all of which serve an immediate utility.

I dont buy clothes on purpose, i only happen across them for free; just can't justify spending resources on that.

I try and evaluate my entire life based on logic, in order to maximize its efficiency, basically as a cop out to try and tiptoe around my uncontrollable explosive emotional id. it rules my life with the logical guy as its public P.R. man, painting everything the opposite of what it really is. as consciously aware of that as i am right now im never aware of it when it applies.

I'm southern like William Faulkner, Michael Stipe, or Mark Twain, not like Larry the Cable Guy, Jeff Foxworthy, or Jerry Falwell.

despite my cynical attitude im a very social person and like to talk to anyone, i just sometimes get myself spread thin due to that. don't hesitate to hit me up.
