I am optimistic, thoughtful, and free on saturday :).

My Self-Summary

I am one of countless former students who has just recently joined the real world in the workplace. I am a computer programmer, which despite what you might have heard is really not so bad. I am a musician, balancing my time between enjoying the music I still make (guitar, vocal jazz, harmonica) and regretting the music I've left behind (piano, drums). I am a swing dancer, and if you ever visit the Ottawa dance scene you'll probably run into me. I am an author, writing bad sci-fi and decent poetry when I get the chance. I am a reader, although my several-books-a-week habit has been curtailed ever since I bought a car (it's so much harder to read while driving than it is while riding the bus). I am a thinker, a doer, a planner, a lover of the English language, a Christian, a one-time fencer, a laugher, a singer, and a good friend.

In short, I am a person just like the rest of you - deeper and more complex than this box could ever express. And that's the way it should be.

What I’m doing with my life

After five years I finally finished my degree! With that under my belt I was able to find a software development job in Ottawa pretty quickly.

Long-term plans? I plan to get in on the ground floor of the Next Big Thing, become independantly wealthy, and spend my time writing novels and playing music. Realistically? I'll probably stay in Ottawa and work for the next few years (it's a good job). After that - we'll see...

I’m really good at

I've been told I have a good memory... unfortunately it's mostly used for remembering lines from movies and television. I also make a mean cookie.

The first things people usually notice about me

Hard to say - it seems kind of rude to ask them when they've just met me.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

Books: Lord Of The Rings trilogy (Tolkien); Snow Crash (Stephenson); Mere Christianity (Lewis)

Movies: The Matrix; Star Wars trilogy (the original); Office Space

Music: Where to start? I've got a lot of BNL and Great Big Sea. I enjoy the Beatles, Metallica, Grieg, The Guess Who, Days of the New, The Hip... it's kind of all over the map.

Food: Definitely pasta.

The six things I could never do without

Good friends, music, my computer, intelligent conversation, good science fiction, and absurd humour.

I spend a lot of time thinking about

The many projects I'm usually involved with. I'm one of those people who has to have lots of things going on at once...and when I complete one thing, I find another pretty quick.

On a typical Friday night I am

Out with friends, maybe at the movies, maybe down on the Market. Lately, I've been out swing dancing a lot...

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

I'm a pack rat. I keep everything, only to end up throwing most of it out five years later. You just never know when you'll need it, right?

You should message me if

If you are looking for someone to chat with, and think I sound like fun, give me a shout!

Also, if you live in the Ottawa area and are interested in singing in my jazz choir, just send me a message and I can give you the details. I think I've got enough people, but that might change.
