Comfortably Glum<p><a href="https://c.im/tags/Introduction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Introduction</span></a> I am a polymath of sorts, although I suppose a more colloquial description might be jack-of-all-trades.</p><p>I am an English major, with an MBA who has spent most of his career in Information Technology and Industrial Engineering / Automation. Go figure.</p><p>I have always loved music, including <a href="https://c.im/tags/rock" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>rock</span></a>, <a href="https://c.im/tags/progrock" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>progrock</span></a>, <a href="https://c.im/tags/progmetal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>progmetal</span></a>, the occasional Country song, and large helping of <a href="https://c.im/tags/80smusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>80smusic</span></a>. </p><p>I play <a href="https://c.im/tags/guitar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>guitar</span></a> as a hobby and am an occasional <a href="https://c.im/tags/guitartech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>guitartech</span></a>.</p><p>I was an avid <a href="https://c.im/tags/runner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>runner</span></a> and Boston marathoner. But have been largely sidelined by PMR that has mostly left me, but didn’t seem to leave most of me. C’est la vie.</p><p>I am a long time <a href="https://c.im/tags/linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>linux</span></a> and <a href="https://c.im/tags/macos" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>macos</span></a> user. And with retirement in site, I am anxious to get back to some programming. Probably <a href="https://c.im/tags/swift" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>swift</span></a>, but honestly, I have rarely met a language I didn’t like.</p><p>I seem to have an affinity for <a href="https://c.im/tags/cats" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>cats</span></a> and there doesn’t appear to be anything for it.</p><p>So, well. I’m happy to be here…</p><p>[edit] Oh wait, forgot to mention sometime poet.</p>
