Click here for a tabular style about-me.
This is a picture of me, in my best looking mood. Don't be fooled by it for a minute.
I am a mere 9 stone in weight. Yes, I am thinner than I appear in the photo.
My relationship status? I don't feel like keeping this little bit up-to-date on that score... There'll be a song or poem sooner or later which will describe my entire relationship lifetime from start to finish. (An expanding song or poem, obviously). Until then, you'll have to hunt me down and ask, if you're interested.
I'm an ex-student of Computer Science at Staffordshire University. They have an appalling web presence which quite accurately reflects much.
It is my intention to complete the course with The Open University, on the basis that I could earn money, stay at home, and not be forced to endure the tutelage of base incompetents who insist that Ada is a good language. My earning of money is performed via the doing of a job (or performing of an errand, for 'Absolutely' afficionados). My job, dear people, is at Oxford Softworks. I'm a programmer. Unsure of security levels imposed upon me, and unwilling to update this whenever I change project, I shan't reveal what it is that I'm working on, beyond "It's a game".
Hmm... I shan't describe my physical features, for they are unimpressive, besides which you can see the photo. (More photos with the results of the hair survey and scattered elsewhere)
So... What do I do?
I used to program computer games, as a hobby... Doing it as a job makes that prospect slightly less appealing, but I'll probably still do it a bit, if I find a spare moment. I have a major project and a few minors, in mind.
I'm vegetarian. Very. No meat has passed my lips in many a year. Possibly my entire life. I'm even vegan at the moment, which has been held to slightly weakly for a year, and fully comprehensively for three months.
I play on MUSHes... In particular, my character Crow (recently renamed RavenBlack) on Absolute MUSH... (Click here to dive into that)...and RavenBlack on The Storyteller's circle...(Click here to dive into that)
I have some friends. They're people who I like, just like most people's friends are to them. If you'd like to know more about them (or if you're one of them and you'd like to know more about you), click here.
My favourite film is... I dunno... Something by Jackie Chan - m'be Drunken Master, or Armour of God.
The Crow is quite good too, but only because of the nice ravens in it.
My favourite TV thing is X-men! Yay!
Bands I like (and have links for) The Cure, My Life Story, Velvet Underground ,Counting Crows ,Counting Crows (another one) ,Pearl Jam ,R.E.M. ,Blur ,James ,Therapy? ,The Divine Comedy ,Radiohead ,Pulp ,Suede.
Hmm, and here's a new bit, my politics. Bear in mind, I'm not as naive as it seems from this. It's just very difficult to put across such a huge point in a sensible number of words. (Sensible being how much I can be bothered to write).
And, what the hell, here's a bit about my sexuality, and thoughts thereof.
To go with the sexuality bit, my idea of my perfect partner.
I have a bit of a thing about words, often annoying people by correcting spellings and grammar, and by pausing to choose the best word for a situation. Some situations don't have a word, and I try to remedy this situation by making them. My words, then, in the dictionary addendum.
