You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile.
If you would like to read about the life of a neurotic, robotic, lesbionic, chemically enhanced grad student/instructor of German at a major midwest university, all in obsessive detail, here ya go. Obsessions include: obsession, "recent media experiences," love, martial arts, my dog, my cats, occasional random drama. And oh yeah, I just turned 30, so add 'occasional existential angst' to that list as well.

| comments: any entry in the series... my childhood obsession has evolved into adult neurosis, but you wouldn't be able to tell from looking... |
| Dead Poets' Society |

| Ed Wood |
