I was born in 1967. My parents moved frequently during my early childhood, but slowed down around second grade. I attended public schools until sixth grade, when I attended a private Christian school through ninth grade. I started college the following year at Gonzaga University, then completed my BS in Computer Science at Eastern Washington University, with about nine months off to work for my uncle about 300 miles away.
Somewhere between 20 and 40, I realized I was, and always had been despite all professions to the contrary, an atheist. The universe requires no explanation beyond itself, and I am the fortunate consequence of fourteen billion years or so of matter and energy behaving in a uniform manner. I can live with that.
I met my wife in 1993, and we were married in 1995. We have two daughters, born in 1996 and 2000. I am currently employed as a software build engineer, and my wife has her hands full just keeping the household in one piece.

Nice to meet you, Zaphod! (And, yes, I do recognize and revel in the irony of posting "nice to meet you" anonymously.)
ReplyDeleteLikewise. I gain a small amount of pleasure to learn that my little solipsistic exercise on the web has amused another thoughtful person for a few minutes today.
