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?

... and to all, a good night.

Merry Christmas, everyone! I've made it past yet another holiday. I'm now back at my dad's place after a midnight Christmas Eve service at my church, ready for another glass of wine and some apple crisp.

I wish everyone and anyone who might read this a very Merry Christmas.
