into: Music of all kinds, the awesome local drum line I play with, football, American Sign Language and Deaf culture, searching for the next really great tattoo, burning the candle at both ends, keeping my family guessing what the hell I'm going to do next
not into: Ballerina flats, "being green" just because it's "trendy", shopping malls, acting my age, boredom; insurance companies who tell me what I can and cannot do for my patients; the Oakland Raiders
makes me happy: Sleeping in; hugs & kisses; presents (both giving & getting); bangin' drums with the line; sunshine in February; MRI scans that are deemed "stable"; white daisies;
makes me sad: broken hearts, broken promises, the destructive effects of addiction, friends who are far away
hobbies: Teaching American Sign Language at a local university; collecting dinosaurs (yes, really!), being a long distance Steelers fan
5 things i can't live without: hair spray, chocolate, diet Coke, diamox (the drug that made me human again!), music
vices: Starbucks, diet Coke, big tall chunky shoes, MAC makeup, martinis, tanning (and not that phoney airbrush shit either!), a tidy office
thoughts on sg: I like it
i spend most of my free time: What is this thing you speak of called "free time"?
occupation: Trust me, I'm a doctor.
current crush: is hopefully returning the favor.
body mods: Dozens & dozens of hours in the tattoo chair. Nose pierced and 14 ear piercings (incl. tragus, helix and industrials). Best body mod ever, though, is the nitinol femoral artery clip in my right leg -- a souvenir left over from a brain angiogram several years ago. WIN!
gets me hot: intelligence; creativity; confidence; strong capable, beautiful hands; dimples are a bonus; a good vocabulary and passion that's always simmering just slightly below the surface.
favorite position: It just doesn't matter as long as I get to be noisy!
fantasy: Probably involves some rope and a few well tied knots.
sign: It's my second language, actually.
most humbling moment: Surviving a spontaneous subarachnoid cerebral hemorrhage in December 2005. Every day since then feels important.
i lost my virginity: but I think it's trying to find me again.... YIKES!
MY PIGEONHOLES: Fuck you, I defy categories
