does-this-angle-make-my-nose-look-bigI read Slashdot, HackADay, The Consumerist.
Surf Facebook and Twitter.
MySpace feels dirty. Xanga, and Friendster are no more.
XKCD and Ctrl+Alt+Del for the webcomics.

I listen.
I’m a bit nosy at times.
I’ve been known to ramble on and on with out a solid point (e.g. like the posts in this blog!)
I try not to dwell on the things that could have/would have been.
I’m easily distracted — especially for stuff not related to work.

I buy stuff on impulse, yet have a thing about saving money.
If I do buy something, I look at the top of the line stuff first… then see the price last. Then talk my way out of it or down a notch or two. Or three.
If I start making something, I’m going to finish it… unless I’ve reached the point where my time is worth more than just purchasing a retail version of the same thing.
I went on an audio system search for two weeks. Found what I want, but only after trying out 4 other systems. That was a lot of driving, and time. Sigh.
I really want a Jayne hat; think that I could possibly make one… but that would mean learning how to knit first.

Annoyed that Windows Live Messenger forced me to upgrade to the latest version back in August on my Win x64 machine, but only to find out that it doesn’t work right. I can’t downgrade, or uninstall.
Same for iTunes. Apple seems to think that a x64 version of Win XP doesn’t exist and the 64-bit world revolves around Vista. humpf.
Anyone remember ICQ? I’m still on that… 26833686.
Sometimes I really enjoy changing the WordPress layout of my website, but then don’t use it for the intended purpose of sharing thoughts for months on end.

I cycle way too much. Good for cardio, but wonders what will my knees feel like 10 years down the line.
I actually like climbing hills on my bike. A self torcher thing, but with the reward of bombing down the hill on the other side.
For the uninitiated, that is one hell of a daunting task.

I’ve played Metal Gear Solid 4 from start to finish for more times than I care to admit. I finished the game with no kills and no alerts too.. and got the secret trophies at the end of each boss fight.
First gaming console was the Super Nintendo, then the PS1, then the PS3.. yeah, I skipped many console generations.
I inherited a PS2 and original XBox from my friends but really don’t have games for these two consoles. No biggie.

Back in school, I prefer using graphing/engineering paper for homework.
Sketches are usually on a small note pad.

Hey, it’s my blog. I never said this has to make any sense.
