Hello birds & blokes! Time again for another formspring Q&A post:
A: That's not how to ask out a lady... c'mon!
Q: do you take your pictures of yourself? or does someone take them for you?
A: I take my own photos about 50% of the time. Occasionally I'll have a helpful assistant to snap a few photos, but if not, I make it work.
Q: what kind of computer do you use?
A: My personal home computer is a MacBook. My work computer is a 2GB Intel Mac HD Core 2 Duo.
Q: where can i get your life? I lovvvveeeeeeeeee you!
A: Trust me, you don't want it...but thank you. Ha, my life is so boring!!! I love you too!
Q: What is your favorite thing happening in guys fashion right now?
A: YAY!!!! I am absolutely in love with bow-ties. It takes a confident man to wear one, and I think that's always be attractive. Also, structured jackets with interesting collars are stirring up all over the runways for the summer/fall, and it's an awesome. They all seem to have a sense of vintage shape with futuristic elements incorporated. I dig Big time. Check out Burberry Prorsum, Gucci, Paul Smith and Dolce & Gabbana's Menswear Collections for Fall 2010. All AMAZING
Q: If you chose to eat meat again, what would your first carnivorous meal be?
A: I'm not really sure how to answer this question. Mostly because I never plan to eat meat again. It's become a moral belief as well as a conscious decision. I suppose if I HAD to eat meat, I'd have a BLT...when I was young I loved bacon. There you go.
Q: why did you leave boise?
A: I made a few big mistakes/decisions that forced me to leave. I've really made a lot of personal progress while living in Oregon, but I really, truly, terribly miss Boise and all the friends I made while there. It's a good life lesson learned that mistakes have consequences. I'm planning to visit this summer!!!
Q: how many tattoos do you have? where and what are they?
A: I have 10 tattoos. In order of oldest to newest:
1. My first I got when I was 18. It's the word "Freedom" on my front, low hip. It symbolizes the song Chicago by Sufjan Stevens that says "If I was crying in the van with my friends, it was for freedom from myself, from the land."
2. Next, is my rib piece. It was inspired by the song Eleanor Rigby by the Beatles and is a compass rose with skeleton keys with wings on them and North & South written above and below.
3. On to my neck I have 3 wooden birds. They are positioned from smallest at the nape of my neck to largest, just under my ear. People are intimidated to get neck tattoos, I love mine. They are only outlined...and I like them like that.
4. I have a piece inspired by Eisley on my left shoulder. It's a one-man-band essentially, and I got it in preparation for a difficult time of my life a few years ago. I got it to represent that the fire in my heart can not be overtaken by material things, nor destroyed by them.
5&6. I have bows on each of my hips. I hand drew each and I love them. They make me feel cute.
7. My left foot. The words "Let our passion bleed" from the Thrice song, T&C. The song is essentially saying that if you've lost all your dreams at least you have love. It's a prayer essentially.
8. My right foot. I have a severed hand with a lace cuff holding a thorny rose, and the hand is bleeding. It sounds gruesome but is actually very pretty. It's one of my favorite pieces.
9. My thigh piece that is in progress. In the end it will be the word 'Honesty' with a crown and scattered jewels and ribbon below it. I've come to appreciate honesty more than anything in life.
10. My in-progress sleeve. Most of you have seen it. It's a fawn/girl totem with lotus flowers and wooden waves. I have a feather floating on the inside of my upper arm. When finished (in May!), it will be down to my wrist. It's representing temptation and purity of heart. I'm so excited for it!!Q: do you smoke? how much/often?
A: I do smoke, regrettably. Currently, I smoke about 4 cigarettes a day, more if I'm socializing. I do have a pack of Nicorette gum and patches waiting for me when I'm ready to quit.
Q: Are you single?
A: Yes, I am.
Thanks everyone for your questions! Happy Wednesday. Thank goodness the work week is half over!
