Very capable of balancing work life and personal life and completely shutting down my brain during the weekends, only to awake on Sunday night. I prefer Stephen King to Shakespeare, but appreciate the two James -- Baldwin and Joyce -- the most. 

I'm extremely competitive in one particular thing, and that's Mario Kart 64. I take myself very seriously and never use sarcasm.
