The long box at the right says some stuff about who I am, or at least as much as can be expressed via pre-generated template boxes.

I edit like a reference librarian with ADD, and while I mean to be systematic, I seldom am. Someday I'm going to adopt the practice of, as I'm reading a work of non-fiction, incorporating information from that book into appropriate articles throughout Wikipedia. I read a lot, but not as much as I'd like to. I also go to movies a lot, but not as much as I used to and again, not as much as I'd like to.

The life I would like to lead

Wake up in the morning, write 500 words, then bike to the Santa Monica Y for swimming or weightlifting then back home. Finish up the morning by doing assorted household tasks. After lunch, some language study followed by writing and reading until dinner time. Post-dinner would be dedicated to music, recreation and social activity. And lots of movie-going.

On Saturdays, a long bike ride to somewhere in Los Angeles including a casual lunch somewhere new. Something unpredictable afterwards.

On Sundays, bike to the farmer's market to get the week's produce and eggs. Perhaps some miscellaneous shopping and the like before getting to mass in the evening and relaxing with a good book to close out the weekend.
