My name is Brett. I'm not one for standing still, and updating this thing has recently become some form of routine for me, like a resume or a blog of some sort. I like to look back on my day and know that I've done something. I have a dog that gets confused for a cat or a fox a lot. (Figure that one out) She's a Shiba Inu. Really cool dogs. She gets along with everybody and everything.

Things I have done in the past 3 months...took a road trip to Austin w/friends, saw a random band at Trees (Metalachi), visited the DMA, checked out the new Klyde Warren Park, Deep Ellum Brewery Tour, MUSE concert, St. Patty's day parade...the list goes on. To sum it up, I like to go out and enjoy life more than I enjoy how it's portrayed on a tv screen. Still love a good show, but if it's going to be sunny outside, my decision is made as to how I will be spending the day.

I'm the type of person who values relationships, whether that is friends, family, or otherwise. I enjoy several activities. Also, that word is ruined. Every time I say activities, I immediately think of Step Brothers.

Furthering my career with Apple Inc. right now and really enjoying it! Also, no, I don't work at one of the retail stores.

I will be moving into a new apt in Uptown here in the next few weeks, which will be nice. I won't have to commute there as much anymore!

First my job, and then mountain biking, snowboarding, knee boarding, rock climbing, marathons, drawing, video editing, and listening (as ridiculously corny as that last one sounds)

That I'm easy to get along with

I've been reading a lot of biographies lately. I'll watch any movie so long as it had a good production and decent writing. I'm all over the map with my music choices...sometimes I like to listen to nothing but classical. Other times, I enjoy mostly alternative. I enjoy folk music. I am a fan of Eddie Vedder. Florence + The Machine and Mumford and Sons, Skrillex...hmm, I really like MUSE. I enjoy finding new bands through Pandora or 8tracks.com. Ultimately, if it's not country, I am game to listen to it.

Shows: Dexter, Breaking Bad, Walking Dead, The Leage, IT Crowd, Archer, Game of Thrones, Wilfred, Parks and Rec...I don't own cable. Most of these I get through Netflix or Hulu...the rest I do iTunes for.
If I didn't, I would be glued to the History Channel, National Geographic, The Food Network, and HGTV. I was asked to housesit recently, and I swear I didn't move from the coach as I watched shows about trying new exotic foods all over the world. If I could do that for a living I would be set...not the sitting on a couch thing, the part about traveling and getting paid to eat new things =P.

I like trying new foods. I really like to grill up my own food at home. I also like to go out and try new places.

Just Discovered:
Greg Laswell
Wolf Gang
Young the Giant
Of Monsters and Men
Radical Face (6 years late)

my friends
my family
my bikes + my car (modes of transport basically?)
my sketchpad
my dog
and
clothes (they keep me warm and are publicly more acceptable than wandering around naked)

Everything.

Work hard, play hard. I actually don't work on Fridays so I get that day started early. Usually by checking out someplace new that I haven't been to. At some point, I'll go to my rock climbing gym for an hour, get changed, and go where the day takes me from there!

Oh good time to mention...if you like rock climbing, but need someone to belay you, I'm always down for a new climbing partner. Everyone always seems to have inconsistent schedules so I don't climb with anybody consistently. I usually end up bouldering or free climbing if no one else is at the gym.

I don't know if I have anything dramatically private about me.

If you checked out my profile and didn't leave a message, don't expect that I will message you instead. If you're tired of looking at this website. I'm not cruising this site for a quick fling, so if that's all you're after, don't bother. Not judging you or anything. We all are guilty of it at some point in our life, but that's just not where I am at right now.

Also, it's more interesting to talk to people that are goal oriented. That, above all else, is at the top of my list.

That said, I respond to everybody, just about.
