Honest – Well this is more true than it used to be. Mainly when I was in the closet and lying about who I am. But I will always tell you what is on my mind, and I won’t worry about being politically correct. For some reason this keeps getting me in trouble.

Geek. I bet you were expecting me to use another more obvious word here, but what would be the point. It would be telling you something you already know. Yes, I will admit it, I am a geek. I like to know things, and staying in and reading a book is just as good as good as going out to the bars to me. Not only that, but I am a computer geek as well.

Fears. I have three phobias. I have learned to combat all of them relatively well and if you knew me you would have no idea about them if I did not tell you. I have a fear of water. My mom and I discovered this when she tried to take me for swim lessons I refused. Yes, I can swim and will go swimming, or whitewater rafting, etc. but I avoid them. I have a fear of hamburgers I do not see cooked. I have no idea why, I just know I refuse to eat hamburgers at restaurants because I did not see them cooked. My third fear is of dogs. This is the result of being bit by one when I was riding my bike to school one day.

Eagle Scout. Yes, I am a gay Eagle Scout, and scouting was a big part of my life. Now that I am out, being involved in scouts is a lot more difficult. Okay, essentially impossible. That doesn’t mean I don’t miss the camping and friendship from scouting.

Details. I like to know the details of everything and I will usually remember them. By this same token, if I have a conversation with you, I will remember the details of the conversation months later yet I will not remember what the conversation was about. If you need to know some small fact that few other people know, chances are I will remember it from something I previously heard.

Boring – Overall, I think I lead a pretty boring ordinary life. Apparently, you disagree or you would not be reading my site, but I think someone who eats, works, sleeps, and repeats leads a pretty boring life. I guess that means most of us lead pretty boring lifes.

Action – I hate waiting around for someone else to take care of something. I usually find myself taking action to get everything done, even if it is something I really should not be doing. So you could say I like to take action.
