That is me. In Napoleon III’s house. No joke. I never joke.

I live in New York City and manage a restaurant. I do these things more frequently than others:

  • Listen to music
  • Cook
  • Sleep
  • Work
  • Be sarcastic
  • Drink tea
  • Drink beer
  • Slap my roommates to settle bets
  • Take naps
  • Read philosophy
  • Type paragraphs of self-serving philosophy that people only “like” because they feel like hey, there has to be something intelligent somewhere in that mess of words
  • Read other books
  • Respect women
  • Watch movies
  • Lie about my interests

Of course, before I do any of these things I have to drink copious amounts of coffee.

Here’s a picture of me in a place I would rather be than here, typing:

(I’m in Florence)

Here I am as a baby. I still fit in that vest (no I don’t).
