I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

About me? Alright, here goes...
Meyers-Briggs says I'm an ISFJ. If you know what that means, then there's my personality type. Don't know how true it is, though. Tristan swears that it's spot-on, and since she knows everything (that's what we tell her), there you go. Moving on....
I am a happily married homo. Jeremy is my sweetheart and I love him to death. We've been together for over 8 years now and going strong. We share a home with our adorable daughter, Miss Ashley Cat. She's fat and sassy, but we love her.
I am was Marketing Manager at an e-commerce software company called MIVA. I was restructured recently, but it's all good. I have since relocated up to Seattle, WA thanks to my new job at Microsoft. It was hard leaving my family and friends back in San Diego, but with such an amazing offer, I had to take the huge step. It's turned out really good, much to the dismay of my parents. :(
I have been going to school part-time for a while now. I keep changing what I want to study. My interests have ranged from Architecture to Interior Design to Business. I'm planning to focus on Marketing now as I really enjoyed that at my last job, especially the tradeshows. Good times...
I'm also a self-desribed Disney nerd, TV junkie, and pseudo-gardener. I love technology and keeping up with trends in the Internet industry.
Oh yeah, I tap dance.
Our new doggie, Miss Daisy, being silly.

I'd like to meet:

Maybe just some friends to hang-out with. I'm happily married, but we have no mutual friends really. Another couple to hang-out with would be nice. I think I also need a friend to talk about loser Disney stuff with. All my other friends laugh at me about it... :)
