I was a compulsive reader for many years. Now I am a compulsive internet gleaner. I still read but it is a little more under control these days. I am married to a librarian, which means among other things that I have incredibly easy access to books and book-based information. I am a student of Religious Science at the Center For Spiritual Living Seattle. I work for Building Envelope Technology and Research as a Technical Roofing, Waterproofing and Cladding Consultant, and I have been there for nine years this month. I used to build and remodel houses until my body decided it was done with that kind of work. I am a multi-instrumentalist and a singer. I sing with the Choir Of Light at the Center For Spiritual Living, Seattle, an 80 voice adult choir. I also play electric bass guitar in the house band there when the regular bass player is not available. I teach guitar to adults and have a unique method that starts right out with music theory , ear training and how to tap your inner musician. I love to cook and I make full, hot meals from scratch at home about five or six nights a week. I love to shop for organic food. I grew up in two places, that is we moved back and forth a lot between Seattle and a small island in the San Juans. I learned to handle boats as a kid and still love being on the water. My work involves a lot of photography and a lot of technical writing. I love writing and I love taking pictures. I have a myspace page. I also maintain a myspace page for my choir. I love pets and we presently have one dog and two (count them, one, two) cats. Our dog is Wilke, (pronounced Wilkie as in Wilkie Collins) who's picture is my avatar. « less
