give me a penny for my thoughts and I'll give you a dollar's worth of ramblings and musings. there's a lot of stuff that is here, and there's a lot of stuff that isn't. You can read it all sequentially and get an organic sense of my self, but if you wanted something a little more targeted, a little more specific -- a quick fix to tide you over because you can't spare twenty minutes to read all of this, here's a menu:
