About

Technical Writing for a day job (with more than a dash of unofficial IT Tech Support thrown in) and Custom PC Builder, SF Writer, and gamer to keep myself out of trouble at home.

Two kids, a dog, a cat, and a temperamental X58 system brought back from the dead to slay software once again. Proud owner of an Intel Xeon W3680 ES.
