Basic Information

I Would Describe Myself As  
I have a lot of things to say about myself. Here are a few of them.
I’m Canadian, and I love being Canadian. I love being self-deprecating even though Americans see it as a sign of weakness. I love being politically left of center (actually, quite far left, if you must know). I love being honest, and nice and polite and caring and kind. (Although sometimes I really do wish I could be a total bitch without feeling guilty about it.) I’m amused by my own respect for authority and rule-following instincts.
I’m also from ST Catharine Ontario Canada, the prairies, and I’m really proud of that too. I love the prairies: the Rockies, the big sky, the clouds, the incredible summers and the brutal winters. But I don’t want to live there any more.
Now I live on thee Island of Queens, NYC. That’s on the east coast, across of North America. This coast is rich and lush sometimes green all year ‘round. It seldom snows here anymore. We have beaches no mountains but giant trees. It’s absolutely incredible and I’m very, very lucky to live here.
I do not know if I am lazy or driven. A little of both. While I tend to work every day, from morning to night (I’m frequently working past midnight), my days are relatively stressful. In the Winter I tend to take a lot of breaks and Vacation in Europe or on the Island of St Kitts WI; where my Grand Parents are from. I spend a lot of time playing with nieces and nephews. When I wake up in the morning with the perfect solution to a given problem, have I been working while I was sleeping? Perhaps.
These days I call myself a lapsed Customer Service Supervisor. This is largely untrue, but in my struggle to redefine myself it’s helpful to cast off the old me in the search of the new.
I have a ton of experience in dealing with real unhappy customers, but it wasn’t until I started doing this other thing about 3 years ago that I began to find the thing that is me in the act of what I do. Does that make sense?
I am impatient; I’m always about 6 steps ahead of myself, and I get frustrated that it takes me so long to reach where I feel I already am. But I have to remind myself I’ve made a huge amount of progress in the mere 3 years that I’ve been doing what I’m doing.
I often get compliments from people asking me “What are your influences; where do your ideas come from.” I will answer that now: “Everything.” Conversations, things I read, things I see around me, books, magazines, old stuff, new stuff, art design, craft, film, music and garbage. I can be inspired at any moment by the strangest things. I am seldom bored. I have more ideas than I will ever be able to produce in my lifetime—some of them are even good ideas.
I’m well travelled. That’s what I did in my 20s when I should have been getting an education. Actually, I’m so glad I travelled then, as the world is very different now. I could go on at length, but I won’t.
I love to think and write and talk. I love hanging out with smart, interesting people. I hate sports, I love music, I hate hiking, I love movies, I hate Disney, I love the Bothers Quay, I hate research, I love making things … I could go on like this, but it’s 1 am and I’m now tired.
