I can freedive to about 30-40 feet (I've never measured it but I've made a guess) and have been doing it since I was about 10.

My parents called me the water-baby.

Holding your breath and plonging in without a mask or fins.

Well, that's my definition of it, but if you were to do it in saltwater when there's a current, you'd be a fool to do it without them.

I'm kind of really attracted to Charles Manson circa 1969.

Haha. Why not; sounds interesting.
Mine is, y'know, more an explosion of angry rants about frizzy hair and the plethora of Hello Kitty merch in Europe and rude middle-aged shop assistants, if you get my drift.

It shall be published. Oh yes. It shall be published.

Does class/work end at 4:20? :P

I need to maintain a fairly fine line of misery to be able to do art. If I'm too happy, I bounce around and get distracted and want to talk to people too much, but if I get *too* miserable, I get too lazy and uninspired to do anything.

4:20=pot. If I recall correctly 420 is the police code for marijuana, as such stoners started to celebrate April 20th and many giggle at the number

Shit, that's awesomely deep. I once had to dive about 20-30 feet to retrieve my sister's mask and snorkel from the bottom of the ocean (that she stupidly just DROPPED) but I did it with flippers and goggles and came out totally exhausted. It's a great rush getting back to the surface again though... I actually really enjoy swimming for long periods in a single breath. When I was 8 I could do 11 laps of an average backyard pool without coming up for air. My best friend and I used to 'train' for it while pretending to be sea otters. We were so cool.

And yet I don't think I have EVER seen a picture of you Beowulf! Post one!

I am physically very warm. I am the human heater! It never takes me long to warm up when I get into bed.

I can't tell time.

And yeah, April 20 (4/20) is a day specifically for smoking weed. A lot of people also light up at 4:20. I've never heard that explanation about the police before, there are a lot of stories around about how it got started.

My right hand has a stubborn callous that won't go away because when I write I bear down into the paper.
