Learning and inventing.

I like trying to be an artist and my apartment is littered with musical instruments and drawing supplies. I'm horrible at it but sometimes I feel like I need some hobbies I'm poor at as somehow it makes them more personally meaningful.

I like to build things from as close to scratch as I can manage; I find that doing things this way teaches me the most. Frequently the tthings I build are made of circuits or software but I try and make all of them somerthing useful and cutting edge.

I like my discussions long and sprawling; to touch as many topics and learn the deepest unusuals makes me anxious for the next talk whether it's in a cafe, at a bar or on a pillow.

Working in my favorite city and trying to make sure it's something I love.

Listening and knowing the spectrum between advice and sympathy.

I'm told I'm good at putting the complicated into analogies that cut to the heart of the idea behind things.

I'm also really good at eating bananas the correct way (hint: you've been peeling from the wrong end)

I have been directed to say I AM A PENDULLUM WIND! But I realize that this is very silly. Some alcohol might have been involved.

I'm rather tall but most people notice me having an animated conversation with someone or fiddling with something interesting that goes "BLEEP"... possibly "BLORP"

I'm usually up to my elbows in some kind of machine or another; otherwise I'm up to my brain in code or discussion.

Media references usually don't pop up in conversation until I know a person a bit better but that doesn't mean I don't find it fun... Just try not to base all conversations off of it.
I always put off updating this but this time I'm going to try and put some down. This is by no means an exhaustive list.

Math and how much more of it there is than I'll ever get to (not that I can't use wikipedia and books to try)

How difficult it is to have a high bandwidth conversation with someone.

My projects.

And:
Gender, Physics, Programming, Organization, Molecular Biology, Sex, Cuddling, Drawing, Linux, DIY and others.

Enjoying the company of friends or teasing useful facts from the vast breadth of human knowledge. Often both.

Otherwise I'm at home wrapped around a book or inhaling some media.

I think a guy in the right skirt can be incredibly sexy and I'm jealous of those guys who can pull it off.

You like cuddling and aren't put off by suddenly learning more than you ever wanted to know about computers or math.
