Past
I was born in Corvallis, Oregon, in February 1974. We lived along the Oregon coast, mostly, for my first six years. Then we moved to Keokuk, Iowa for ten years, till I was sixteen. Then we moved to Corvallis for two years, where I finished up high school at Crescent Valley.
I went to the Univerity of Texas at Austin and got a BS in physics, graduating in 1995. I then moved to Washington state and have lived here since.
Present
Sometimes I play computer games like Age of Empires or Civ3. Sometimes I go drinking. Sometimes I hang out with friends.
I have a list of things I like.
Family
I have two parents, two sisters, a little brother, and a nephew.
I have a dozen plants and two kittens, named Britney and Kevin. I have no children or other dependents.
Future
I want to get a 1980-something black Trans Am with t-tops and a falcon painted on the hood.
Places
I've lived in Oregon, Washington, Iowa, Missouri, Texas, and Washington DC. I've been overseas to the Bahamas, England, Italy, the Netherlands, and east Africa. I've been to Canada, Mexico, and Alaska too.
I would like to visit Germany, Australia, Singapore, India and ... other places. I don't suppose it is necessary to cover the map with black dots, but it would be nice to have them more evenly spaced.
