I saw another LJ user's dilemma on an intro post - I never wrote one of those either. You can learn a lot about me by reading my 2011 posts, but those entries probably spark questions. So, in this entry, I want to open it up to questions: anything you want to know (within reason, of course), feel free to ask in the comments below. I'll either ( Read more... )

Someone in the add_me community, sourdick, requested I post a more recent picture with my beard gone. I don't have anything super-recent, but I've got one from a wedding I attended a few months back.
