About My Bad Self
I listen to a LOT of music.  Most of it is rock or punk rock or classic rock, but I'm a sucker for catchy songs or good girl singers.  I can also appreciate really good hip-hop. I'm kind of a music snob, I'll admit, but it mostly stems from my dislike for fads.  If something is good, I have no problem saying so; but if it's something with a lot of hype that doesn't deserve it, I will trash on it.  That's how I roll.

I live in Indiana, where the status quo is king.  I am 26 years old, and I do graphic design.  I go to Purdue University and try not to drown in a sea of schoolwork.  My majors are English Literature and Computer Graphics Technology.  I write on the side and play drums in a few bands (and guitar in one), including Divebomber with Conrad and Julia.

I love board games.  I love Adult Swim cartoons.  I put hot sauce on everything. When I grow up I want to be a septic tank.

Don't support sweatshops.
