 Charlie 3000 |
Hi! My name is Charlie 3000. I live in a spacious house in Austin, Texas with my lovely wife, Somer. I watch a lot of movies, listen to almost as much music, and try to read many books and comic books, although lately I haven't been reading as much because of my job. I like anything as long as it's good (or better yet, great). Lately I've been watching movies by my favorite directors and listening to classic pop music (The Beatles, Harry Nilsson, Cheap Trick). In the future I plan to watch more foreign and feminist films and listen to more classical music and hip-hop. I'm also trying to become more politically aware. So far I'm leaning towards anarchism-libertarianism. Unfortunately I've also had to start exercising and going to the doctor (for allergies) in order to stay healthy. Last, but not least, I'm a middle school functional life skills teacher, which I enjoy, because I like working with students with disabilities. |
