I live an interesting life, in the same spirit as the ancient Chinese curse, "May you live in interesting times."

The items in this folder are earnest attempts at creating an autobiography through short stories and sketches of memories and experiences from my life; unlike my blog, which will usually only have my weekly experiences, these items will have much more thought put into truth and storytelling. Also, many of them will not be about me so much as about those who have been in my life; some of those people are not here today, and I've always felt it is my obligation to give a voice to their lives. Regardless of who the focus of these items are, sometimes I'll change names, and sometimes I won't.

I gave this folder an XGC rating for a reason; I am certainly not a role-model for children, and many items will contain excessive cursing, drug use, violence, sex, blasphemy, and all the other vices that have defined my life. My one request is that readers are kind enough not to cast judgement in their reviews, outside of critical literary boundaries.

Oh, and I'll be dating them all as accurately as I can.
