I'm not really sure what to say about myself. Most stuff, as you
would have it, is listed below. However, seeing lists of things
that one dis/likes does not really give you much of an idea of who
you are.
I think I am a bit odd, and that normal is overrated. I count
stairs when ascending them but not while descending.
I am often stuck in my own head.
When at bars and clubs I like to stand near the dance floor, close
my eyes, and feel the vibrations of the music.
I am somewhat naïve when it comes to human interactions. I like to
think the best of people.
I am fallible.
I am patient and tolerant with most things.
I have a horrible fear of inconveniencing/bothering others.
I am quiet in a number of ways. It is almost a daily occurrence
that I scare my wife by "sneaking" up on her, though there really
is no sneaking involved.
I want to learn
sign language.
I currently attend Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond,
VA. My major right now is
Accounting, but that may/probably
will change at some point. Figuring out who I am and what I want
[as we all are probably/should be doing].

Scrabble. I love
to play it, and I'm pretty good.
Charming cats.. apparently I've been given the title of "Cat
whisperer" because I can "tie cats in knots and still have them
love me".
I'd like to think I am a pretty fair listener. I am usually a go-to
person to get things done and/or solved.

My wife once said it was my pretty blue eyes and my seemingly
average height for a male.
But.. it's been a long time since the first time I saw myself, I
really don't know.

Fridays are my days "off". Rather, I have no school or work on
Fridays, though my daughter (born Apr '08) does not go to the
babysitter's place on Fridays so I look after her, which really is
a full-time job in and of itself.
Friday nights I usually enjoy staying in and trying to watch a
movie or cook dinner, or both.

My life revolves around work, school, my wife, and my daughter. I'm
married to
SweetVaBreeze.
I will try almost anything once.

If you have decent netiquette, that is a plus. Two of my pet peeves
are leetspeak and random caps. Aside from that I will pretty much
talk with anyone, I am always up to making new friends.
