Profile Information

About: My first name's almost always first in an alphabetical list. We live in a sick culture. Sick, but not yet dying. What some of us now know as a fear-inducing, paranoia-struck, aderall-fueled kamikaze of information and noise is strongly in need of a supporting gesture, a soothing kiss, or a liberating embrace.
