  • Television

    Almost never watch TV. Probably would listen to MTV or VH1 or whatever, broadcasts from other countries, PBS, the comedy channel and the history channel if I did.

  • Books

    Zillions of geek programming books, Wall Street Journal and New York Times (I know, those aren't books but they're as close as I can get timewise). I have to read a lot in my field -- unfortunately there's little time to read non-geek books. Occasionally I get time to read Buddhist and Hindu philosophy books (rely on the Dhammapada and need to explore the Upanishads and the Gita). I'll read anything by a Buddhist nun named Pema Chodron. When I had time to "pleasure read" I loved Faulkner, Steinbeck, Shakespeare, Camus, Maya Angelou, Alice Walker ... I enjoy the classics.

  • Heroes

    My grandfather, Jean Caumont; Marie Curie; Grace Hopper; Maya Angelou and Oprah Winfrey

About me:


..Blog..: alwaysinmotion.wordpress.com
..MySpaceIM Skype..: alwaysinmotion
..Yahoo & AOL IM..: ofteninmotion

I buzz on people. I enjoy listening to everyone's story. I can hang for three days with almost no sleep just meeting people and hearing what they have to say.

I love getting in the car with no plans and a map and going some place I've never been -- with other people or by myself -- and just exploring. One of the best things I've done is drive across the U.S. and back. An excellent experience about a year ago was a helicopter ride over the ocean near Atlantic City, NJ. Can't wait to ride in a balloon over someplace scenic.

I usually go to the gym every day. The people are wonderful at our gym. I usually read on the elliptical there.

I love art, music and books.

I buy too much music and always will. I listen to it all -- I have a very eclectic collection and always try to keep up. I'll listen to trance, then hip hop, then classical. There's so much music to explore.

I paint and draw when I can, abstract and representational. Lately it's been representational. Sculpture is very liberating and very, very hard.

I'm Theravadan Buddhist and meditate as often as possible every day, during the day. Meditation is about BEING HERE NOW.

My Meyers-Briggs type indicator is ESFP.

I've owned my own business and have been a software engineer most of my life. I love my work. A wonderful aspect of my profession is that I usually work with people from many different countries so I get to travel vicariously through my friendships with them.

I take a lot of classes to stay up-to-date in my field and also for fun and to meet people. The classes keep me really busy -- I love them.

Who I'd like to meet:

Just about everyone.
