A recent post on /r/r4r inspired me to try reaching out once more, because I am nothing if not blindly hopeful.

What can I say about myself? Eh, I don't know for sure, but I know I'm big into weird things, weird music mostly. For example, I can easily put on an album that, to me, evokes images of staticy TVs tumbling over gigantic waterfalls, helicopters taking off, and near endless landslides and just zone out for a while as fuzzy noise pounds into my head. Of course, there are some more normal things floating around my music library.

Keeping with the theme, I'm a musician as well. If one were to be creepy and poke around my post history, they might find that I seem to play a large piece of furniture with strings on it designed to fill in the low end of a song. But, of course, since I don't know what I'm doing, I use a bunch of electronics on the floor to make my chunk of wood sound like a much smaller, higher chunk of wood with strings on it. Currently, I'm in a band that could be compared to Royal Blood, if Royal Blood had no vocals, was more hectic, and their frontman wore a skirt.

But what about the person behind the horrible noise? Well, at the moment, I'm trying to move on from one job to another, much less stressful, much less food service-y job. I do try my best to be friendly, but the reality of it is that I'm an awkward, semi-beardy sort who sometimes isn't too good with the talky wordy stuff. In the past, I've been described as intimidating, both in terms of my appearance and how I speak because big words, but deep down, beyond the cold outward exterior, I'd like little more than to be around someone I can openly talk about my day, talk a lot of harmless shit, be silly and stupid, and cuddle with.

Now, about that thing that I suggested doing. On your dominant side, so your left side if you're left handed, reach out and grab a thing. I'd like you to tell me about that thing; how it came to you, something about it, or even that it reminds of something that happened a long time ago. Or a short time ago. Whatever it is, I want to hear about it!
