- About Me:
- I'm still hung up on the relationship status question. Relationship to what? That's why it's complicated. Romantic?

Open-ended. Complete. Eternal ... like I said, it's complicated.
And that's how I am. Likely to look at a perfectly straightforward question and see a loophole for a little intellectual exploration. Distracted by details. Proud of the accomplishments of the people I love. Able to use a barrage of words to avoid actually revealing anything about myself.
OK, one thing: I'm trying to learn the Dvorak keyboard and it's taking me a long time to type this. So I think I'll stop now.
Just know that there are good things to know. They just can't survive being exposed on the surface.

As I grow and develop, I increasingly move away from the world of measurement--when I remember to. When I am aware that it is encroaching, I’ll fight back by rooting myself securel… Continue

LOL, love what you've written about Relationships too!
Hahaha, it's so subjective and relative, can't be explained so easily =)
Portland is a great and eminently civilized town.
Wishing you all the best,
