Indulge in a little Practical Gothicism...

I'm a student who is a little too into Pathologic, Gothic Literature, and haunted houses. I write, and make art and suffer
doing too many independant projects
with no actual reward or value.
It's fun, or something, I think.
As of right now I have two associates
degrees, one of which is in Mortuary
Science, and I am a certified crematory operator.
I am majoring in Classical Humanities.
I am currently employed as an Archival
Tech Assistent at my University.
