ACD AT MISCHIEF.
STILL LEARNING TO SPELL FAVOURITE FAVORITE.

 

What should you know about me that makes me me? When I snack, I go sweet, salty, gummy and then repeat the cycle until I feel sick and hate myself. Then I have one more handful of chips. I’ve never tried coffee or cocaine, but, after talking to me, no one would fault you for thinking I’m a dirty liar. I find dreaming exhausting. I practice whatever the opposite of meditation is and work hard to rarely be alone with my thoughts. I’m super into playing catch. My most prized possessions are my canoe and my oversized laundry drying rack. If you made me choose, and, really, I can’t imagine why you’d put me in that kind of a jam, I’d keep the drying rack. I love people, but distrust animals and oceans. I think that gives you a pretty good picture of me – much more accurate than the picture above, taken 7 years ago, before my drying rack was even in my life. You should see me smile now.

Whoever you are who’s reading this, and, one day, someone will, I’d love to chat, so please don’t think twice and reach out if you’d like to too.
