About Me
Some things you just can't share on Facebook... I'm a 30-something, happily married, college grad, working over 10 years in book publishing. I also live an information processing disorder and ADD. It challenges my management of time, productivity, perception, spatial interaction and memory retention. One thing it can't challenge is my intelligence. So it's my goal in life to use that intelligence to plan around those challenges and work on the things that truly matter. I plan to blog here regularly... I hope my stories help, entertain and motivate others. And I'm hoping to learn as much as I can from others dealing with the same challenges I face daily. We all are given a paddle in life... it's up to us to figure out how to 'row'. I would love to learn how others choose to use that paddle... and how far it takes them.

Hobbies
I've play guitar, keyboards and trumpet in a number of popular local bands. Used to work out extentively, now I make up for lost laziness. I love gadets, technology, robots and syntheziers.
