When I was six, I didn't have too many friends in Austin. Most of 'em were here in Los Angeles, and even though I came here fairly regularly, it's still not the same as havin' friends at home. So I always tried to get as close to those kids as I could, even though it never wound up workin' out for me. Too shy or somethin', I don't really know ( Read more... )

I know, in fact I've always known, that my Dad questioned a lot whether or not I was his son. It probably wasn't until I started hackin' for a livin' that he thought maybe I had a few of the same genes after all. He's got a hell of a lot more of a spine, and does a lot more with his life than I do ( Read more... )

OOC: Takes place before the events occurring in this here thread type thing.

"So that's what I'm going to do."

"You're goin' to get a book out that a lot of people'll actually read, and you're goin' to get a girlfriend that last longer than three or four months."

"Stop talking like I can't do it."I laughed, pickin' up the bottle and pointin' at ( Read more... )

I don't. I do not. Will not, have not, was not... Hold on, that one didn't apply there. Whoops.

Anyway.

It's not fair. I think I'm a good guy, and I think certain people who I'm livin' with should give that some notice. 'Cause I can get notice elsewhere. Oh, can I. I could get plenty more if I had the nerve to go do that kinda thing. Gettin' laid ( Read more... )

Shane'd seen many men come in and out of this apartment.

He didn't think more or less of Sasha for it, most days it didn't bother him at all. She was way out of his leauge, and he was well aware of that. Out of your leauge meant you just didn't try. He'd learned that lesson well with his first crush, he wasn't expecting the second to be any ( Read more... )

Shane thinks he doesn't appreciate sunrises enough ( Read more... )

Depends on which side we're talkin' about.

I don't know too much about Mom's side of the family, but with Dad's, it just means a long line of people who aren't too different from me. The Gannons are chock full of criminals, the only difference is what area of 'expertise' we wind up in.

Also, a lot of them give me an example of what not to do with ( Read more... )

Oh, I lie about all kinds of things.

... Whoa, wait, I should back that one up. I don't lie all the time. That's more my Dad's thing, and I've watched Mom see right through it and go upside his head over that kinda thing all the time. All the time.

And I got friends who're a hell of a lot better liars, so they don't have to tell the truth about ( Read more... )

I think I'm too nice for the real kind ( Read more... )
