Meme Day 01

Oct 05, 2010 22:02

I am acutely aware I have been neglecting this place lately. That was part of the purpose behind yesterday's Meditations on the Abyss. However, I will try my hardest to check in every day, thanks to jamie95.  I know the last 30 day meme wasn't a huge success on my part.  It fizzled.  I apologize.  But here's to trying again...?

Day 01-Introduction

Really? After all the years I've been on LJ with some of you, you STILL want an intro? Okay, fine. Just remember I didn't make the rules. I'm Jason, but you can call me Jay, JJ, JP, Jase, J-Dawg, J-Bone, Hey You...whatever. Next March, I will turn the ripe old age of 32. I relocated from Michigan to the Seattle area this past July for work and, aside from a couple issues out of my control, I've been fairly happy. (Minus leaving the partner of six years in Michigan, but that's a whole different can of worms to untangle.)

Half Italian, quarter Russian and quarter English. I have the Italian temper, the Russian larger build and the quick speech of the English. Rather fair skinned, so I burn very quickly out in the sun. Almost completely shaved head and seasonally adjusted beard or goatee. As a perhaps uncomfortable joke, when people ask me about the lack of hair on my head, I quip the rest of my body makes up for it. Yeah, that generally kills the conversation right there. (Humor. That's another thing about me. Bad humor, good humor...whatever.)

I've lived in five different states at approximately 17 different addresses. I've been cooking for as long as I can remember. I'm stubborn, hard headed and independent, loyal, respectful, honest...and spiteful if you get on my bad side. I don't like asking for help, much to my detriment sometimes. Over the years, there have been more slings and arrows than I care to admit. Each and every one has taught me something different.

Speaking of that relocation, I did it by myself, towing a U-Haul behind my Neon through eight different states, four time zones and tons of different landscapes. I moved all my stuff into my new first floor apartment almost by myself and then moved a few weeks later (surprise...by myself) to a third floor place. Remember...stubborn. Very very stubborn.

I'm a writer at heart and once had three different operating blogs. There's currently 18 different season passes on the Tivo and 9 episodes of America's Test Kitchen mock me every time I turn the Tivo on. Star Trek and Star Wars have always been my major passions, but there's also He-Man and GI Joe and superheroes and Disney movies and...well, too many more to name.

I pride myself on being an open book. If you want to know something, ask the right question and I will give you an honest answer. Just don't be offended by what you may hear. Occasionally, I'm scatter brained, trying to get too much information down/out too quickly. Editing and proofreading are things I hate.

Chances are if you're reading this, you know a whole lot more about me than I could ever write here. These are the basics. I'm sure more will come out through the next 29 days.
