Athlete, nerd, unexpressed artistic mindset, all in no particular order and at times conflicting. I'm studying up on Linux and trying to run all the way up Twin Peaks. I've got a long way to go before I can make it with walking. That and I want to attend more writing workshops.

You'll see me hitting up coffee shops in the Mission early Saturday morning as of late I've been crashing Friday night. I sometimes even make it to yoga.

De de-de-de de dede de de de de.

I may finally be growing up a bit. The move from Michigan last year put a lot into perspective as I grow professionally and focus on hobbies and health.

Soon I'll be starting my second year in the Bay Area. I love it all so far and look forward to enjoying it for a long time. After all, I've lived in too many different countries and US states to keep moving.

The summer was great. Two major accomplishments so far: Correction eye surgery is a success and I've run two half-marathons!

Multitasking in almost every way but I can't spin plates for the life of me.

I have a positive, care free attitude. I'll bring this in during the lighter moments of work or play, but still focus with the best to knock out the things that need done. It's a work hard with a light spirit attitude.

Delegating.

Typical ... how typical. I try not to have a typical Friday.

I'll tell you my Social Security number, birthday, mother's maiden name and all my passwords when...

You're serious about life while not actually taking it entirely too seriously. In other words, you can often find a smile no matter what's going on. But you're also working hard at life all the while.
