About Me


I'm a geologist working for an environmental consulting firm. Right now it's mostly a desk job but I enjoy doing it. I'm usually a pretty shy person but I open up after I get to know someone. I think I have a good sense of humor and I love to laugh. I'm a very honest person and always believe in doing what I think is right. I'm a pretty hard worker too.

My Interests

Geology (you saw that coming, lol), history, anthropology, politics (to a degree anyway), supernatural stuff (mostly ghosts and hauntings), reading, writing, and art (mostly drawing and painting but also graphic art).

You're Major Samantha Carter!

I'd like to meet:

Friends
Note: I'd appreciate it if people would hold off on inviting me to events in New York City. My work schedule does not afford me the time to travel into the city much to attend late night parties, events at night clubs, etc. Maybe in the summer this will change, but for now, please, no invites to NYC events. Thanks.

Music:

Rock (particularly classic rock) and contemporary jazz. I don't really have any favorite groups/artists, but I do like Steely Dan, Sade, Van Morrison, Yes, ZZ Top...

Movies:

I like most genres of movies but scifi/fantasy/horror really stand out (though I'm not really into the slasher horror movies like Friday the 13th... I like creepy haunted house type movies better). Some of my favorites include the Harry Potter movies, Lord of the Rings, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Stargate, Army of Darkness

Television:

Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis, Ghost Hunters, Doctor Who, Supernatural, Mystery Science Theater 3000 (for old time's sake!) ... to be honest I really don't watch a lot of tv.

A couple of scenes from Singularity, one of my favorite early SG-1 episodes...

Books:

I love reading books about history, politics, supernatural (again mostly ghosts and hauntings), the natural sciences and sci-fi/fantasy. One of my favorites is "Let's Be Heard" by Bob Grant. He is a radio show host here in the NY metro area who has been around for a long time and is not afraid to tell it like it is.Being a huge Stargate fan I also enjoy reading some of the novels that have come out, including "The Price You Pay" and "Sacrifice Moon." If you're a fan of the show I'd recommend these books highly.

Heroes:

Mom, Dad, and our brave military men and women. :)

Update

So it's been 6 weeks since my accident and I'm feeling a lot better.  The recovery is still long and slow, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't recovering at all or that I'm no better off than I w...
