This is what I call my "second blog."
My first blogspot, Diary of a Radical Moderate, has been a satisfying hobby for the past several months. That is not to say that more than three or four people read it, at most, but it makes me happy, and that's enough, isn't it, when it comes to hobbies?
So, now I have a second hobby to divert energy away from the first one, much the way my writing habit and the expensive but utterly impractical graduate degree I'm seeking for it are diverting energy away from my "real life."
You see, it's a perfect analogy. Is that poetic or what?
As noted on my bio page, along with the fact that I will occasionally wear a scarf, I work in the communications/media industry. In my other life, I am a grad student and (eek) poet.
I live in state-sanctioned holy matrimony with a person of the opposite gender, but we find it more romantic to play like we're just shacking up. Actually, we've been together about 10 years as of today. Politically, I'm a registered Democrat who sometimes votes Libertarian, still mourns the death of the socialist project and thinks Arlen Specter is kind of cute (in that curmudgeonly grandfather kind of way.)
Metaphysically speaking, my closest fits right now are secular humanist/religious trivia buff/failed mystic.
Re: all this about the Golden Mean, etc., I wish I could say I knew my Classics (much less geometry) inside and out, but what I dig I dig.
