I am silly, cynical, and cerebral.

My Self-Summary

I read, I write -- mostly code, a little fiction, even less poetry. I play games of all sorts. I watch movies and TV.

I try notice as I move through the world: the shapes and textures of the leaves on the trees, the throaty roar of the diesel engine, the rosy pink aurora of a streetlight in the fog.

When I was younger, I rode a skateboard everywhere I went and I wandered the quiet streets and sidewalks in the tiny hours of morning, talking about serious things while the crickets sang. I am not that boy any more, but his mark remains.

What I’m doing with my life

Professionally, I'm coasting: I have a job that demands plenty but does not push me much.

More personally, my life is fairly dull. I've managed to live in Boston for a couple years without really establishing any meaningful friendships.

I have a 10-yr old son who lives out-of-state with his mother; I moved here from California to be closer to them. He is the North Star in my life.

I’m really good at

working with language. I'm pretty good with software, too. I seem to have an empathetic knack, and I've had some luck helping people feel better when they're down.

The first things people usually notice about me

I'm very tall. I'm pretty sure that's the first thing. After that, I couldn't tell you.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

I like lots of all four. Some recent favorites: Cormac McCarthy's _The Road_ and Neal Stephenson's _Anathema_; _Coraline_ and _Frost/Nixon_; The Decemberists and Siouxsie; eggs florentine and Loose Cannon ale.

The six things I could never do without

I would be at a loss without a computer; most of my life is there.
I like to have at least one book in progress at all times; I feel restless if I don't.
I carry my Swiss Army Knife with me pretty much everywhere but airplanes; a remnant of my Boy Scout years.
More generally, I would find it hard to live without stories to nourish my imagination.
That's only four, but I'm giving up early.

I spend a lot of time thinking about

all my eclectic interests. I live my life inside my mind, and so I am almost always thinking about something.

On a typical Friday night I am

surprised to discover everyone else has left the office already. Later, I might be logged into World of Warcraft or laying on the couch, feeding my hunger for narrative via a book or a movie.
