Grog's Life

Here is an overview of my life. I keep my life as an open book so that other people can learn about me and hopefully learn from my occasional insights and my abundant, almost excessive, number of mistakes.

News Flash! I am now employed after a long vacation. My start date is April 24, 2000. I am a programmer at nline systems. I talked to the trees and they all thought this was a good path for me. I quit my old job late last year and spent 4-5 months doing relatively nothing. The creator wanted me to just sit and watch my toenails grow. Last December I went to a Philosophy 6 class taught by Tom Brown that discussed one wise Native American's approach to touching God. I worked as an electrical engineer, then a programmer, then neither, now I'm a programmer again. Here's my resume. My previous employer is Venable Industries.

I was born, raised, educated, not married or bred yet, but have thus far lived in or around Austin, Texas. It's a great place to live, the people are wonderful here.

My current hobbies are massage therapy (I'm a registered therapist but I enjoy getting them too), camping, learning wilderness survival skills, eating like a neanderthal, low brow spirituality, walking around Austin, and especially searching for some kind of meaning in this life. I used to go salsa dancing, bicycled more, and was active in Toastmasters. Now I'm opening up my life to allow new hobbies to emerge.

Last summer I took a river rafting trip through the Grand Canyon. Hot. Rapids! Water. Cold. Side canyon hikes. Sand. Rocks. Lots of good Grog food. I'm glad I didn't drown or get badly sunburned. It was great.

Here's a pic of my friend Marc when he lived up near Washington, DC. He regained some of his senses and moved back to Austin. He lived with me for a few weeks last year, before he moved into his house. Here's a snapshot of my pit on Oct 12, 1997.
