I'm a moderately hardcore CS geek with leanings into assorted forms of spiritual exploration and a staunch libertarian streak.

I'm at my best when I feel like I'm accomplishing interesting things, and I tend to channel this into technical projects...though I'm getting more and more interested in real estate projects and how they can relate to community development.

Right now -- healing. I spend a year and a half in bed recovering from a broken leg and a couple surgeries. Right now, I'm focused on getting back in the saddle. Spending a lot of time at the gym or at physical therapy and a lot of time recovering from the same.

People tell me I have a certain gravity.

I'm not sure what that means, but it is fun to watch people get sucked in.

I love musical theater and cirque du soleil. Getting caught up in the excitement of a large crowd is a lot of fun for almost any artist.

Food: I'm getting back into cooking after a couple-year break. Seem to be excited about meat these days.

Music: mika, beatles, pink (both martini and floyd), assorted mantra (bhagavan das, snatam kaur), gaga if I'm in the right mood, just about anything from the 'shortbus' and 'juno' soundtracks. A boy got me hooked on scissor sisters recently. Totally his fault.

Movies: it's rare for me to really love a movie. I'll go see a blockbuster or tag along with friends for something amusing. But it isn't a big part of my life.

Good sci-fi does turn me on (some star trek, bsg).

vegetables
sunny days
hot water (bathtub, sauna, even just a long hot shower -- body needs it)
people to talk too

Right now...I'm brainlocked on figuring out what I want from my home. Putting a lot of time and energy into getting it to feel right.

Ideally -- a date with a cute boy or a small gathering. Maybe a show or a nice dinner.

I love trashy chic-lit / chic-flicks. They're just so wonderfully awful.

You are an adam scott (ben wyatt on parks and rec) type. Short/scrawny/nerdy/nervous/silly. It's a huge turn-on.
