Who is this guy?

When I signed on with Del Rey, they asked me for a biography. Unfortunately, my biography is so unbearably dull that, instead of providing one, I gave them a list of things that didn’t kill me.[1]

A tumble down a flight of stairs onto a concrete basement floor when I was five
Beatings by nuns in elementary school
Beatings by junior high public school kids
Daisy’s green dock light of hope
A combination of a good friend, a sports van and several six-packs
An avalanche of beers and bong hits beyond that
A Separate Peace
Years as a fan of ’70′s and ’80′s heavy metal
Ten months living on a couch in a friend’s Seattle apartment
Seven years picking up dirty towels and flushing urinals at a gym
Four exceedingly gentle attempts by my then-girlfriend, now-wife to break up with me
That guy in the Volvo who turned in front of me, nearly snagging my front bicycle tire on his rear bumper
A long string of menial jobs answering phones, filing and making copies.
My son (so far)
Deadlines
This book (whichever it happens to be)
[1] For values of “kill” that include ruining my life or making me miserable.
