About me:

I hate MySpace. (I've had a blog for years and years and years... the link is below.) This is partially because I think MySpace is the Geocities of the '00s, and partially because I've worked for enough .coms at this point that I pity the foo' who doesn't have a good business model. :)

Most people think of me as:
that chick who runs the Del Amitri website (if you can say that posting Justin's random emails is running a site ;) ),
that chick with the online journal that her family disapproves of (but now that blogging is hip, it's easy to get around that one), or
that super geeky programmer girl who also dishes up a large side of sass.

I currently work as a software engineer for a kickass company in Palo Alto. We have two dogs (Nicky and Ash), and three guinea pigs (Bacon, Snowy, and Riblette).

My favorite hobby, besides geekery, is SCUBA. (I'm currently a certified rescue diver.) I also am an avid motorcyclist and dirt bike rider. Oh, and I excel at being sassy.

my parents drove out to Missouri recently for a visit. Since they drove they brought some boxes of my things that are still being stored in their garage and there was a photo album with a bunch of pictures from the Rochester house. I'll have to have them scanned and share with you! FUN!

You didn't know Teenage Fanclub was still around? I forget the title of their latest CD, but yeah, they're still gigging.

Well, at least one station in Baltimore played JC... for one day! Grrr... going to have to work on that!

They played "Something in That Mess" and "Out of My Control" (plus "Opposite View" by the Dels!) on Oct. 23rd.

Anyway, the station is http://wtmd.org
