About Me

Oh man, that old about me was getting tired. What's a good one? Maybe I should put it to a vote! See, there are many aspects of my personality (it's called 'being human', it tends to diversify a person). Between all of those, which part is the real me?
I dig Dr. Seuss. I like Muppets. Spongebob? A number 1!
Zealotry, bigotry, over-sensitivity, consensual ignorance? Lame! No time for any of them!
I love to love, but as I get older I have begun to harden my stereotypes. But I'm less shocked when the ones I have are broken. Weird, eh?I enjoy travel, but there is nothing I enjoy more than sharing my travels with ones I love. That actually goes for my entire life. I enjoy some things alone but for the most part the more people I can share them with the happier I am. I like being part of communities and giving back to them as well.
I love San Dimas!

A dream I never knew I had

Oh my god, Becky, look at her butt!

I claim that this is the song of our generation. Now, hear me out. It's not a song of inspiration or triumph over oppressors. It is not a song that makes heroes of simple men and wom...

To Inspire

A half a lifetime ago, I must have been in high school, my sister and I were having a conversation in our parents' kitchen. I don't recall who started it but at the end of the conversation, she ...

Happy Martin Luther King, Jr. Day!

So what does this day mean to me? I don't know. Not much, I think. I think that a man as powerful as Dr. King deserves his own day. But the granting of it so soon after his pas...

The beat

Head thrown back. Arms reaching for broken ceiling. Pulsing bass laying beat more primal than pounding hearts. Minds lost to bodies. Higher thought lost to the moment. Moment w...

When it snows in Seattle, don't go there!

This started last Monday: Flight to Minneapolis scheduled at 6:30 Finally leaves: 8:15 Instead of a leisurely 2 hour layover, I had to rush to my connecting flight. 9:52: Depart Minneapolis to Seattle...

Video games and Kepler

I've been a little heavy on the introspective lately, and I've gone in about every circle I can think to put myself through. And when it comes to the end of the day I have to admit to myself tha...
