Welcome to my little online watering hole. Basically, the main purpose is to provide me with a collection of links which I am able to access no matter where I am in this great big world. This is also a repository for various events in my life so my distant family and friends can see what is happi with me!
So who am I anyways, at least on the face I suppose? Well, I'm currently Principle Software Engineer for America Online, working on various jost projects from blogs to customer alerts. More importantly, I no longer have to commute (yeah). I love the outdoors - hiking, camping, rock climbing, rafting, running, rollerblading, and a whole bunch of other 'ings. I like dancing, especially lindy, swing and argentine tango. I also enjoy going to festivals, nothing really beats free fun! I enjoy the arts, especially plays, concerts, operas, vocal and classical performers. I suppose movies should be tossed into the bunch, but everyone likes movies. I like rock, jazz, soul, blues, classical, and some pop music (sometimes Louis Armstrong, other times Rob Zombie, Bush, or Beethoven, or Styx). I also like alternative, but alternative is now mainstream, so I like mainstream music as well.. I enjoy foreign foods, especially Thai and Indian, but dislike mushrooms, banannas, olives, and coconut on deserts (looks too much like hair to me!) Liver, and other miscellaneous animal parts don't appeal to me much either.

If you haven't noticed, I have a bunch of hobbies, and use this page to express them and share them with you, the world, in hopes that one day some good will come out out of it!

So feel free to peek around, and email me if you like to compliment or complain about the website, a past lover, your parents, or whatever..My email is easy to figure out: xtian (at) stonescape (dot) net
