    <about><![CDATA[i am an artistic sort. i dabble in many different forms of art; drawing, painting, sculpting, photography, digital art, and in one exceptionally bizarre episode, music.<br/><br/>i don't particularly enjoy people or crowds, or lots of activity.  i prefer the company of animals or aliens (of which there are precious few) as humans are stupid and silly.<br/><br/>i despise superstition (religion, new age nonsense about 'the planets' 'auras', etc. all falls under this rubric).  i am interested in the occult and religion though, but from a sociological/trivia standpoint.  <br/> i am extremely honest, too honest for my own good.  although i like people who have a good sense of self, i do not like the self absorbed.  <br/><br/>i know many odd factoids.  <br/><br/>i can become paralyzed by beauty, be it a sunset, a rusted tin can or a person.  <br/><br/>i admire self-awareness, though finding any in humans is rare.<br/><br/>i have a certain amount of humanistic appreciation for anything done with great skill even if i don't actually like what is being done.<br/><br/>i see fascination in things most people ignore.  <br/><br/>i am a bit of an anglophile (people who like britishness).  <br/><br/>i am constantly doing some kind of creative activity, and my artwork tends to be morbid and surreal.  <br/><br/>i find myself at odds with everyone for i am not from this little ball of dust.]]></about>
