- I'm not Weegee

I'm stubborn. Sometimes this stubbornness costs me more than I want it to, but it's also proven to help me out quite a bit in my work, my play, and my interactions with others.
I've been told I have a sexy voice. I'm not so sure about this, but as long as people think that, I suppose I might as well take what I can get.
-
I try to be humble about things now. I wasn't always that way but it's definitely helped my overall psyche.

-I don't have a weird-ass name like Harrington or whatever

A lot. But it's not narcissism. I am aware of the potential of the individual and am performing at a level I'm comfortable with. I think I'm cool because I be the kind of person I think is cool.
I do not think this makes me any better than anyone, until someone proves to me that they are consciously ****ing away all that potential. I don't mean people who don't care about their grades in school or people who suck at their jobs or people who mistreat their bodies. Nobody's perfect. I mean people who don't care about other people's perspectives, about justice, or anything. People who are proud of being *******s, or proud of being unhealthy, proud of being ignorant. So I rank higher than rednecks. Saying that isn't self-absorption, it's reasonable confidence.
My point is, you can like yourself and still be humble. And you should like yourself; if you don't, you won't take enough care of yourself to be likable.
-I'm good at a lot of things
-I shower and change my clothes every day
-I'm patient and cool-headed
-I can make friends with almost anybody
-I'm not Tim Buckley.

I really like that I can just come up with a snappy comeback/funny thing to say. My quick wit, I guess..?
"Wit beyond measure is man's greatest treasure"
(I've taken several online tests that say I'm a Gryffindor, but there was only one that inexplixably put me in Ravenclaw..)

I think we can all be thankful we're not Tim Buckley.

You know what's cooler than destroying the potential for a joke?
Making the joke.
-
But that takes far more time and effort.

There's a little bit of Tim Buckley in us all, isn't there?
-
Nope.
-
I like that I'm not a woman.
-
I like that I have not died from a heroin overdose.
-
And someone still makes a Tim Buckley with a misogynistic "joke" apropos of nothing after WeeGee pre-ruins the gag. You ****ing SUCK at humor.
-
So does Tim Buckley
-
(that's the joke)
-
Your avatar complements that post perfectly.
-
I like the fact that I am a totally awesome trumpet player. I've been playing that thing for nine years.
-
I like that I'm totally living the dream and have no job, living off of school loans, and writing, soon to submit to publishers.
-
I like that I'm a furry. ...you know, because the Redwall series was awesome.
And I'm in the same boat as TEM, except I draw stuff.
-
... I'm a furry ...
... same boat as TEM ...

I consider myself to be pretty good at writing poems, public speaking, and making jokes. Anything more soul-searching and/or Buckley-related, I'll have to mull over.
