never met anyone as everything as i am sometimes

Okay, basic stats first and foremost. I'm a Scorpio, and "Tumblr old" (>37), so I'm old enough to drive (check, currently a honda fit since the elantra decided to begin its shuffle), vote (check, and even used work at the polls for my grammy), gamble (nada, I'm terminally broke), and drink (nada, I prefer a good latte or frozen lemonade). I'm married, with two furkids (zero shame, those are our babies).

I live in an old house, just across the river from where I grew up. I spent some time in a cute apartment in the "city", and before that with my parents for a year (needs must), and my first apartment was the upstairs of a small house in the town I grew up in, but on the other side of town. It was... well, it was our first apartment, and a learning experience. As in, we learned we would prefer to have our own house.

I used to work at a video store, and yes, that is was glamourous as it sounds. I started as a generic monkey in my hometown's store, hopped to the next town over (in one direction) for like, a week, then went back to act as manager. I finally got promoted, and stuck that out for awhile, then got shoved to the next town over (in the other direction, over the river) to be manager. That was a bit too much, so I dropped down a step and was the assistant manager for awhile, then took over as manager. It was pretty cool in that I knew WAY too much about movies and go to put my prodigious power to work for good, but lousy in that it was tough to keep staffed and thus HELLISH on free time. Even when I wasn't there, I was "on call". Yeeeah. Sooooo, I'm now working for a large, semi-local insurance company... local in that I live in Connecticut, and we're like, the insurance capital, so pick your big name. We've got an animal in our logo, but that barely narrows it down. It's not a lizard. Fucking gecko. I progressed from many many years in customer service to be more behind the scenes, and am currently making my way as a very junior software dev at my advanced age. It's... humbling!

Let's see... I'm a huge movie fan, and at one time a pretty damned good trivia buff. Most days, I can't remember where I put a pen 2 seconds prior, but I can 6-degrees you from Ewan McGregor to Sir Ian McKellan in about 12. I love music- I'm not terribly picky, but have a preference for Hozier and a weakness for a lot of "catchy pop music". It depends on my mood. I lovelovelove to read-mainly Stephen King these days, as I've been in a book club dedicated to his works for a decade now?? I'm still grieving over the loss of Buffy, but these days it's mainly MCU shows, dramas my wife has sucked us into (Found, Beautiful Minds), and camp, queer masterpieces, however short lived (Our Flag Means Death, What We Do In The Shadows).
