Stuff About Me --- Stuff I Like --- Pictury Stuff --- Linky Stuff --- How to Talk to Me About Stuff
I see yooo! So this is where the pressure comes in. You clicked on that link up there, fully expecting an eloquent and wonderful autobiography of myself. Hm...well, I'd bet money that you're going to be disappointed, but here's to the old college try, anyhow (and speaking of which, I've been in college for two whole years now, and I definitely haven't learned this method of so-called 'trying'---I'm lazy as hell, THAT's what I've learned in college...whatever.) Actually, because I know for a fact that any sort of paragraph I try to write will simply ramble (just like I'm doing now), I think I will make a list, instead. I can handle individual, independent sentences--no problem!
