I'm a bit of a jack of all trades and master of none. I can't really conceive of completely dedicating myself to any one thing.
I like to think of myself as a critical thinker. Am I really? I guess it depends on who you ask. I'll probably never get used to the fact that most people seemingly prefer to be told what to do.
I'm pretty big with the smiling. In the last few years, some psychologists have studied and written books about happiness. Their conclusions are basically this: the more of a positive attitude you have, the happier you will be. (I need to get myself one of these research gigs.)
I love to eat and I like to cook. I think food is one of the joys of life. I always get excited about cooking for others because I think eating together makes for good friendships.
Sticking with food, I'm a bit of a picky eater. I avoid eggs, mushrooms, bottom-dwellers (shrimp, crabs, etc), and cheese. I do eat pizza though. Kindly deal with the dissonance. But aside from the above hang-ups, I'm pretty adventuresome and will try lots of things. I like big flavors, lots of herbs, some spicyness.
