I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I'm a socially functional nerd. I like to analyze people. I suck at writing things about myself. Perhaps I should analyze myself a bit to see why I don't like writing about myself. Hmmmm, interesting. I'll get back to you on that.

My Interests

Downloading and watching TV and movies, hanging with my Girlfriend, playing video games, hanging at my friend Mike's place and playing guitar hero, going to the beach, reading, working from home, wandering aimlessly through IKEA and wishing I owned a home, having Presidente Margaritas at Chili's.

I'd like to meet:

Nobody in particular, except maybe William Shatner. I have an awesome girlfriend and really good friends. Maybe people who could comfortably hang with my social circle.
