All About Me

I've decided to change my MySpace profile again, but I like my current one, so I'm moving it here for posterity. Enjoy.

1. I am 28 years old.
2. I still don’t know what that should mean.
3. I am college educated but think I made a mistake in picking my field.
4. And my college.
5. I like my job in theory.
6. I hate it in practice.
7. I don't know what I want to be when I grow up.
8. If possible, I wouldn't mind being Jake Shears of the Scissor Sisters.
9. Or, at the very least, Mrs. Jake Shears.
10. I am gay and it’s important to me.
11. I think that people that say “being gay is just a small part of who I am” are full of shit.
12. I am a Democrat.
13. I usually don’t trust Republicans.
14. I don’t really trust Democrats, either.
15. I never trust people who drink decaffenated coffee.
16. I would vote for a person drinking decaf over a Republican any day.
17. I would probably vote for a cup of decaf over a Republican any day.
18. I think the United States of America is the greatest country on the planet.
19. That doesn't mean it couldn't be better.
20. That doesn't mean it shouldn't be better.
21. I believe that if we are going to go to war, it should be felt by more than the unfortunate families who have sacrificed their soldiers.
22. Voting is a good start.
23. Voting Democratic is a better start.
24. Voting is only a start.
25. I love my family. They are the greatest influence on every decision I make. I can barely pick what cereal to have in the morning without first wondering if my father would approve.
26. I believe in God.
27. I don’t know if I have a “personal relationship” with him or if he even likes me very much.
28. I think that the Church can be a very positive force for good in the world.
29. I also believe that fire is a positive force for good, providing humans with heat and light, a way to stay warm in the winter, and cook food.
30. I know that fire can be destructive and has ended many lives and hurt millions of people.
31. Ditto on the Church.
32. I think I'm a Christian Universalist. If you know what I mean by that, email me, we'll get a long great. If you also identify that way, even better. Give me a call.
33. I love children but don’t know if I want my own.
34. I used to think that gays and lesbians should only adopt, that it was better for the world.
35. Then I met my first nephew. Six nieces and nephews later and I can understand that biological urge to have your own children.
36. Six nieces and nephews later and I’m pretty sure I don’t want children.
37. I’m pretty selfish.
38. I’m selfish because I’m the youngest child in my family and have been single for almost my entire adulthood.
39. I’ve never touched a woman’s bare breast.
40. I saw a vagina for the first time in the kitchen at a Christmas Party.
41. I believe vaginas are gross but necessary.
42. I don’t support civil unions, even though I used to cheer every time some milquetoast Democrat said they supported them.
43. I recognize, along with the Supreme Court, that separate is never equal.
44. I couldn’t care less about clothes, most popular music or lines from movies.
45. All most people want to talk about it seems are clothes, popular music or lines from movies.
46. I don't like old people. They say weird things, smell funny, and freak me out.
47. I'm terrified that my parents are becoming old people.
48. I still love them more than anything in the world.
49. Maybe there is hope for them.
50. But not for guys who feature shirtless pics on MySpace. (ahem, Ben)
