More random Jimness

There are a lot of things I'd change about the world if I could, and I suppose you could say I have casual aspirations of world domination to that effect - but I also have an ironic knack for seeing the good in people who aren't aware of it themselves, and everywhere I go I can't take my eyes off the beauty of this rock we call home.

I try to keep my perceptive yin and yang in check, so to speak. Dwelling on the negative doesn't make it go away. (But ohhh, can I rant about it!)

The history of (anything, really) is ridiculously fascinating to me. I could talk about anthropology or (insert choice subject here) until I run out of breath.

I love being outdoors and surrounded by life; I grew up next to a creek in a big ol' stretch of trees and fields, and I feel completely at home in the woods. Of all the places I've visited, so far my favorite—by far—was a rainforest. I could easily kick it 'Swiss Family Robinson' style forever, and be perfectly content. As long as the bed was comfy.

I think water beds are freakin' awesome. But I'm not sure I'd want one.

When I can manage to stop gorging on fruit, fresh veggies and yogurt, I really do enjoy the creativity of cooking. All the interactions of tastes and smells and colors and... no, I'm not flashing back to kindergarten... it's just awesome. I simply love cooking. I invent some weird recipes.

I don't consider myself a hedonist to any degree - but I do have a knack for appealing to the hedonistic desires of others. I've never figured that out.
