ABOUT ME
In no particular order: I find just about everything funny, including many street signs, awkward situations, and small twitchy animals. I think intelligence and passion are the most interesting things about someone. I'm apparently pretty good at volleyball - which is an odd skill to discover after 22+ years... Most recently, I've been interested in rock climbing, digital painting, and problems related to productivity and motivation. You can read about my latest experiment here.

Going from these paragraphs alone, I apparently speak in short, halting sentences. I silently judge you when you pluralize "anyway." I'm a walking contradiction: Love applesauce, not so much the apples. Love peanut butter, hate peanuts. Free dinner for anyone who gets that :) I use smileys in questionably necessary situations. I enjoy finding loopholes in juuust about anything.

I like listening more than I like talking. Despite that, I've been slowly bringing back your mom jokes & 'that's what she said' since 2005. This is almost never a good idea. (Though The Office has drastically sped up progress on this front).

Growing list of my (exaggerated) personal mottos:

• Don't be a fatty.
• Shut up and do it already!
• The world doesn't need you. (take a break.)
