About meIn my mind, I'm 27 and a literate jock. In real life, I'm in my mid-forties, and a fat literate jock. I'm a Web Services Librarian. I am dominated by my four cats and one whippet, as well as my tumbledown 1905 Old Portland house. I pine to go back to school to be a transportation planner. I'm obsessed with bicycling, walking, human-powered transportation, scootering, DIY, queer and other politics, hand-built bikes, feminism, knitting, octopi, and slowing down. I live in Portland, Oregon. Oh, and I do this website, http://www.altportland.com -- and take pictures and post them at http://www.flickr.com/photos/vj_pdx/

I almost exclusively read non-fiction.

I'm a cartographic thinker. I spend too much time on the computer.

About my libraryI try not to collect books when my local public library has them. That said, I am defenseless before O'Reilly/Web Dev, cookbooks, and knitting books.

I'm currently reading a pile of feminist fiction. Who knew that was a subject heading?
