About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Nothing to do, nowhere to go (when I remember).

ABOUT ME

Pfuh, what's to say? Introverted thinker, as far as I am any judge. I vary from moment to moment. Something stays the same, but I'm not sure what it is. Generally open and friendly, if you are.

PHILOSOPHY

Remembering to breathe.

Much of Vivaldi, some Mozart. Lou Reed. X men. Alan Moore. Atlas Shrugged (not that I would recommend her philosophy).

Teach, Learn, Share
