Yeah, so, um... I hate writing about myself. People are too complex to summarize in a list or a paragraph, myself included. I'm a pretty casual person. Most people would call me a slacker, and I very much have that attitude, but my GPA was probably to high for me to qualify for true slackerdom. I like satire, and college football. I hate mushrooms. I strive to be open-minded, but whether I truly am or not is not for me to decide. I don't like the premise of organized religion: I think it's a personal issue. I enjoy writing and rock climbing, though I excel at neither. I'm incredibly disorganized.I founded the American Civil Liberties Union campus group at Iowa State. Iowa is actually a pretty lame place, but I had a full scholarship so I really shouldn't complain. Typically, though, I think I prefer to live in an area with at least 100,000 people — preferably much larger, say, Boston. I'm out of shape but not overweight. I prefer cats to dogs. I have trouble being myself around women I'm attracted to but don't know. Feel free to send an email if you have any questions.
