What are your special interests? Some people have more than others and I figured it would be fun to share and compare.

I like reading european history mostly between the industrial revolution in france and England, though I do not concentrate on dates and special events, more on the day to day modicum of the people, what they wore, what they ate, how they talked. I read a lot of ficiton books that revolve around that time period, like Amanda Quick.

I also used to write quite a lot, but I have yet to start writing again, its been a few years since I wrote in earnest, though I write poems from time to time. here is my lastest ones:

Blue jean blues
Supple softness of Cotton
Snug around her thighs
Like the embrace of god
Like to touch the seams; I would

Blue-Jean tactile wonder
Blended roughness
Scented like Tide
Sold in stores everywhere

Kiss Me

Tongue me tender
Tongue me twice
Lick the wounds
Deep out of sight

Your breath so hot
Around my lips
Defrost the aching
Need of lust

The Words

We had the words
Spun like silver
Sliced like bread
We had the words

Jumbled into nothingness
Meaning Fire, Meaning Burn
Jammed into purpose

We had the words
To scream
To bleed a soul dry
We had the words


I like fantasy and fiction a whole lot, so the games I play are exclusively rpg's and only certain kinds of rpgs. Nothing futuristic, nothing that has to do with space, space does not interest me at all.

I like drawing Curves and collecting Slinkies.

Only mineral collecting and astronomy; I can identify every mineral specimen from my collection by touch behind my back.

minerals are cook, you can see the curvatues of the rocks if you look at them cose enough, that is if you have them with slight spheric forms.
