I'm the kind of person that would rather go try something than watch someone else do it. I spent the last few years building and racing cars for myself and other people in spare time. It was fun and dirty. And as much fun as it is to play in the dirt, I'm up for something else and wanna find someone to play with.

I am fun loving, random, and part genius

I'm working as a IT guy for local government. Most of the work I do is application development and process automation, which has been ok so far because it's not putting any jobs in jeopardy. Outside of work I've just been working on my "retirement plan" which will somehow get me out of working...forever... by the end of this week.

Update: The retirement plan worked!!! I've been living off money in the bank all weekend!

Trying to figure out how to be lazy for as long as possible. If that requires working really hard once for a long period of time, fine I'll do that. But I don't wanna have to do something twice if I don't have to. As a result, I'm a pretty decent problem solver. And I can diffuse tense situation efficiently with either laughter or a "pull my finger". So far, I've been 100% with laughter which is good because I don't know if I can "perform on cue."

...Is the tail. I wish my parents cut it off when I was a kid, but now I'm kinda scared of doing it myself... and I'm a little attached to it. Some may even say it's "cute".

Actually, most people notice my smile immediately. I guess it makes me look inviting. That's cool, because for the most part, I like meeting people so it works out!!

So, it appears I haven't updated this in a while... I guess I'll update what I've got so we can see how my tastes have changed over time.

New favorite book is "The Art of Driving in the Rain"-- Based in the northwest around my favorite activity on the track that I learned to race on. When a book can take your hand and guide you though a scenario you dream of on a regular basis, it sticks with you. I will also give "Ready Player One" honorable mention.

UPDATE: So... I've been reading through the Bible a bit more and I'm loving the passages that resonate with me, especially when something in my life is highlighted by said passage. There are still sometimes when stuff will fly right past me though... I guess I'll have to read again another day and hope for a "hit" the next time around.

New favorite movie is NOT "Twilight" ...

UPDATE: That's pretty much still true, DJANGO Unchained was pretty awesome.

Favorite music / artist was Kanye before "808's and heartbreak". I also like Hooverphonic, Paramore (shut up! I don't care what you say!), some new cuts from Flo Rider. Basically anything with cool beats and rhythms. I miss how Erykah Badu impressed and amazed me when I first heard "On and On". Andre 3000 is pretty cool too. I also dig classical (it takes me back to my afternoons with the glowing box and Bugs Bunny)

UPDATE: I still dig Kanye's old stuff, but there's been a bunch of cool new sounds in the last 'lil bit, right? Mackelmore has this song "Can't stop us" that I can't stop playing! Phillip Phillips, Gym Class Heroes, Benny Bennassi, Adventure Club, Big Gigantic, Mr. Oizo, Jasoooon Deruuuulo (not really, I just wanted to spell his name like he always sings it), Jamie Foxx

Food:
Sushi YEAH!!!!
Cajun YEAAAAAAH!!!!!

1. God
2. A computer
3. Momentum (in relation to career, racetrack, relationships, finance, whack-a-mole)
4. Toilet Paper (or something to take it's place)
5. Music
6. The cool side of the pillow

How to get my natural behavior to be in sync with God's will.

What my next step is going to look like, and who is going to be stepping with me.

Why people (myself included) don't understand that the change is normal.

Why those one monkeys have red butts.

These days, working on a project.....

Isn't private enough for you to waste time reading it.

You're laid back with a sense of humor, have your own job (sorry, I gotta say it), you're just as comfortable sitting at home watching a movie as you are going out. If you can hold your own in a conversation, awesome... If you can kick my ass in a conversation/discussion/ friendly argument, even better! (this earns you bonus points, but beware!! I LEARN FAST!) If you're into racing or wanna try it, I'm already swooning... do guys swoon?...whatever guys do in that situation, I'm doing that!
