Random Facts That Belong in the About Me Section

I know I've written about myself in You Think You Know Parts 1 & 2, but that was over a year ago. Some things have changed, some things haven't. So I'm stealing this quote from my bro Beezy "If i was able to let u in my mind at any moment the snapshot you take would be worth a million words..." So here goes...

I'm full of contradictions.

I think I'm most productive and creative at night, well the wee hours of the morning that is. I love the hours between 2 and 5 am when no one else around me is awake. I have room to play, alone time to express myself, time to do whatever I want and not have to worry about what anyone else thinks.

I love to watch the sun rise and set. Usually, when I catch the sun rise, it's because I haven't gone to sleep yet.

I'm jealous of the people who have at least a career path to guide them. Everyday I try to come up with a solution that will make me happy.

If I met myself we would probably clash at first then develop a love/hate relationship. I'm an acquired taste.

I'm a hopeless romantic.
