Hobbies

I used to lift weights and play soccer. I was a goalie, and I loved it more than words can depict. Sadly, I've suffered many orthopedic injuries throughout my life, and this precludes me from playing at the level that I used to for the forseeable future. I also play the piano (although my hand is injured at the moment) and sing. I will say that I play the alto saxophone as well, with the caveat that I am terrible at it. I used to write a great deal of poetry, though recently that creative spark hasn't shone through much. I am easygoing, unflappable, and have a dry sense of humor. I perform well under unexpected pressure and new situations; emergencies included. I enjoy strategy games, electronic or otherwise. I am a "gamer," a hobby very much encouraged by being injured so many times...I have had 12 major orthopedic surgeries to date. For those who ascribe to the Myers-Briggs personality profile, I am an INTP
