About Me

This is where some might write a long rambling description of themselves, listing everything from how they felt about the first time they shit their diapers to why one political party is better than another. I could do that, but instead I think a short point-form list is a better fit here.
  1. Recently turned the page on my midlife crisis, but still suffering from post traumatic stress over it.
  2. I'm very shy, especially with women.
  3. I recently had a really bad time with social anxiety disorder, but seem to have it somewhat under control now.
  4. I'm about midway through my 40s, but often feel as lost as the freckled-faced teenager in that weepy after-school special.
  5. Too organized for my own good. I have a love/hate relationship with structure in my life.
  6. I own a laundry hamper and I'm not afraid to use it.
  7. I would never tell a child there is no Santa.
  8. I love Lobster but could never drop one in a boiler pot.
  9. I'm not much of a drinker.
  10. Don't smoke cigarettes or drugs.
  11. Love to read and write.
  12. Junk food addict.
  13. Collect rare and antiquated first edition books.
  14. Careers included: Residential renovations contractor; building consultant; magazine editor; home energy auditor.
  15. Where some are married to their work, I am married to my free time, and she's a jealous bitch who doesn't like me cheating.
  16. I like to be right, but will accept when I'm wrong.
  17. I can be stubborn, but also fair.
  18. Own a lovely home in east Toronto, where I live alone.
  19. Never married, never going to be.
  20. Disappointed my life never amounted to much.
That's about the gist of it. I will entertain questions if you have any, but reserve the right to be evasive and dishonest as I see fit.
