The most pragmatic of my bohemian friends, but the least committed. I fixed my professor-friend's turntable with superglue--when later selecting a side for his raging farewell dance party, I recognized that I had served my purpose. In the end they'll ask me to list my contributions and I'll smile sublimely. Because I'm crypto-sophisticate of the deadpan-mischief-funny order: I'm reserved on the outside but musical on the inside: I'm an insatiable listener and affective companion--I believe that nothing matters but those who are given to us to care for. I love to meet others like me who present a mild yet literary face to friends, but whose waters run deep. (Albeit their John Waters.)

Having trained in cinema I now work as a software engineer for a prominent open-source Linux distribution.

Last year I went to Budapest, Oakland, San Diego, Lancaster, New York, Helsinki, London, Berlin, Copenhagen, and Wisconsin--some for work, some for weddings, some for random bike trips.

I work from home, and getting out of the house for some healthy fun would do me good.

thrifting, spatial reasoning tasks, identifying songs, not planning
anything at all, driving in total darkness, sounding like a baseball play-by-play announcer, the
crossword, lying down in public places, leading toasts, fixing cars, making omelettes, operatic renditions of Adele songs, i.e. KARAOKE.

I take "I like your hair", as a doubly-veiled compliment, and I seek to share life-experience with those who value it :) .

Super-eclectic tastes, especially in cinema; meanwhile I confess to watching House of Cards at a gallop. I cook but not in a sophisticated way. Sushi is a regular pleasure.

my TODO list of 3470519874 project ideas and what to do next weekend.

. . . doing something about which my friends will giggle with a scandalous toss of the hair, "so typical!"
