So here I am. This is All About Me time, so if an autobiographical spinning of the wheels doesn't fit your mood, best move on.
The basis stats: 37 and single, engaged once but never married. I have a BS in psych which I immediately put to good use removing things from dead people (more on that in a minute). I've known about SG for years and stopped by now and then, but I tend not to join anything ever. Finally, good sense and an affinity for the naked and the naughty overwhelmed my reluctance, and here I am.
I live in Raleigh, NC, an unassuming town with as much nightlife as skyline (at least the sort of nightlife I enjoy). I come here by way of New York (twice), Florida and Alaska. I much prefer cities to the rural world. Something security inspiring about enormous pillars of concrete and glass.
So, best job ever. After school, while deciding what to do with myself I hired on with the Red Cross. They have an organ & tissue harvesting program -- taking hearts, skin, various bones, lumbar vertebrae and connective tissue from donor cadavers. I took the class and spent the next 5 years as a tech (later, as trainer and lead). Anecdotes another time.
Things you should know:
I tend to sound way more formal in text than I am in person. All part of the Ticktockman persona, cultivated over many years on the internets. People often err on the source of my nom de plume -- shall you be one of the elite who get it right?
I trend left politically, especially on social matters. The current administration wakes me up at night, teeth on edge. I'll doubtless have more to say on all this as time goes by and each new scandal unfolds.
I am an atheist. I've read the bible (including a fair amount of apocrypha), studied the arguments and find that theism doesn't hold up -- much less Christianity. Interesting subject, but purely academic.
I dream. Vividly. More of that to come.
If you've read this far, buy yourself a cookie. A damn big cookie. Time to go.
