When I was 14, MTV came to my house because I was one of Britney Spears' biggest fans. (I was one of the first people to call Justin Timberlake a “slimeball” on national TV and you can watch that bit of history here.)

In 2014, I lost my cellphone in a bar. Weird selfies of a man in China posing with an orange started showing up on the new one. I went to China, became a celebrity there, and found a friend for life named Brother Orange. (Read about that here.)

My favorite food is cake. (Vanilla cake with vanilla buttercream frosting.)

I hate, hate, hate motorcycles. (Loud and annoying.)

My hobby is making extremely specific Spotify playlists. (These include: Songs every Catholic knows even though you never paid attention in church, Songs that start with a man moaning, and Songs closeted gay boys and middle aged women in loveless marriages listened to in minivans.)
