Myself is what I wear, I keep the spirit spare

- Roethke, Open House

I like the way libraries smell and I know more dead languages than
live ones. I think buildings are sexy and cities are as gorgeous
and complex as falling in love. I speak architecture fluently but
with an accent that gives me away as not being native, simply
enthralled. I play the fiddle and live for pubs that are
holes-in-the-wall where the brogue is thicker than the Guiness and
the music is as old as the devil and faster by far.

I'm an amateur photographer and hang out in skate parks taking
pictures of kids who should be in school. I like hiking around.
Stars are awesome.

I used to live in Chicago and I miss her.

Boston puzzles me. I swear this city was designed by a
genius in non-euclidean mathematics - the shortest distance between
any two points has more curves than Marilyn Monroe. Somewhere out
there is a street you can't get to because all the roads leading to
it are one way the wrong-way.

I have two degrees, one in Computer Science and the other in
Egyptology, and I've actually used them both at the same time.

There you go. That's my nutshell. If you're reading this, chances
are you know me. If you don't, chances are a couple of dozen more
words won't get you that much closer. IM me or leave me a comment
if you'd like to say hi! :)
