Burton Speaks

Irony: i·ro·ny n The use of words to express something different from and often opposite to their literal meaning.

I'm Burton from Portland, Oregon, United States. I'm 33 and live in the Portland Metro Area. I work hard. I drive fast. I play often. I'm sarcastic, appreciate irony, and find humor in even the darkest of events. I'm non-traditional. I question authority. I'm a know-it-all and a planner. And most days, I wake up thinking the world is full of fundamentally good people... and have a lot of problems when I'm proven wrong. Any other questions?

Current Mood: Gray

Another night spent poring over school readings alone in my apartment, trying not to think about anything else but usually failing. It's my life. Can I do with it what I choose?

Advice to anyone thinking about becoming a student: not much health insurance in that field. Practice good dental hygiene.

I had the impression you kinda hated school. Way to self-improve. Sorry you're in the gray lately. Hope I get to see you when I'm in town, the 3 weeks before xmas. Take care o' you.; 8:09 PM, October 14, 2006
