About Me

Click Here For Myspace Layouts
I work a lot, but after 8 years of 15-hour days, I'm finally down to normal 10-hour days now. I co-founded a web development company years ago (which is why I work all the time).
It takes a lot to get me down, so I'm usually in a good mood. I have a high self-image. I don't think I'm better than you. I'm just good enough for me.
I like that people are adding me as friends, but at least send a message. If you're just going to add me to boost your number of "friends", don't bother.

If I don't know you already and you just add me without introducing yourself, I'll just delete it. And don't invite me to some group I probably don't want to be in. What in my profile makes you think I'm a belly-dancing theater major?

Sorry for the outburst, but I want to make this stuff obvious to anyone who bothers to at least glance at my profile. I get 3-4 friend requests a day now, and I know it's not because I'm such a likeable guy. Ugh.
