On occasion I've been a toy store salesperson, a plumber's apprentice, a web developer, a spotlight operator, a production artist, a pizza maker, and a student, but I prefer coaxing language into pleasing arrangements more than any of these. My sandwiches are fairly good, I'm told, and my chili recipe gets appreciative nods from friends.

David’s Quotes

“I can never read all the books I want; I can never be all the people I want and live all the lives I want. I can never train myself in all the skills I want. And why do I want? I want to live and feel all the shades, tones and variations of mental and physical experience possible in my life. And I am horribly limited.”
― Sylvia Plath, The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath
