CURRENT MISSION

To bring the outside in and the inside out

ABOUT ME

These things make me really happy: dogs, bicycling next to a train at 1 am.

I'm shy around new people at first, and both neurotic and spontaneous.

PHILOSOPHY

I first saw this on a friends' card when I was a kid, and I've found it useful now when I worry about things.
"...grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
The courage to change the things I can,
And the wisdom to know the difference."

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbed into wild rapids at Ragged Falls, near Algonquin. I didn't die, and I learned that I'm really good at climbing on rocks barefoot.
