About Me

I'm married to my best friend and the guy who taught me how to relax ... livin' in the burbs, got a cool job doing software architecture, 'Cosmo' is the name of our golden retriever, he's wonderfully spazzy ... still haven't managed the 2.5 kids... we do have 2 cats. They aren't quite as spastic. I'm still in school cause I'm crazy like that. Working on a Masters in Public Policy and Administration, one more semester and then my thesis! Woo whoo. I figured I'd work on being an educated, conservative democrat .... I know, that's hot...

My Interests

Running with geezers, State and Local politics (most of the time), Snowboardin, Fishing, Dorking out, Java (programming, not coffee), Bad Movies ... collecting weird items like "Muscle Men" to display on my cube at work, watching bad Lifetime dramas like "Pregnant at 16" ... appling cost benefit analysis techniques ... discussing software development methodologies ... discussing how the SDLC sucks and Iterative/Agile development makes the software world go 'round ...

I'd like to meet:

Movies:

I recently re-watched Garden State and forgot how good of a movie it is. Mark and I saw it on a Golf Course in Maui on our honeymoon during the Maui Film Festival. It was awesome. And it still is! Zach Braff was even there ... yeah, I know ... calm down.
Also, most anything with Will Ferrell. ..
THE JERK:

Navin: Well I'm gonna to go then! And I don't need any of this! I don't need this stuff, and I don't need you. I don't need anything except this [picks up an ashtray] and that's it and that's the only thing I need, is this. I don't need this or this. Just this ashtray. And this paddle game, the ashtray and the paddle game and that's all I need.
Great Oden's Raven ... Anchorman. A must see "The avenging disco godfather" ... it's all about angel dust, PCP and Disco Cop Funk ...
