Journal

Meanwhile, back at the ranch ....

Okay, now that I'm back let's see how much I can get done.

About Me

Okay, I'm going to finally break down and add a short bio. I'm a native of the U. S. Texas Gulf Coast, the city of Houston to be precise. I studied chemical engineering at the University of Houston and because I also attended a magnet high school program I was able to graduate a little early. So much for the prosaic details of education.

I love mathematics and the first chance I get, I'm planning to collect a doctorate in the subject. When I'm working I build mathematical models (usually in Fortran) for chemical process simulation, as a consultant. Between consultations I work for a construction services company and I think of both jobs as being nothing more than playing with erector toys, and getting paid for it. It's a lot of fun as long as you remember that you are suppose to pretend that it's hard, and you get paid for it.

I had a serious childhood so I age retrograde (the older I get the more childishly I behave). I make up for my lost youth by indulging my sense of curiosity, and reasonable play. Unless you are into: astronomy, programming, or ferrets (I always maintain a least one as a pet) the rest is anime. I'm on page 120 of the "Post your sexy self" thread.

One last thing, my name:
Proxima Centauri -
next star with possibilities. ^?^

Anime: Seikai no Senki (Banner of the Stars)
Band: Widespread Panic is my favorite rock band and my taste is far too wide ranging to make a good listing. We'll have to connect for you to know my love of music. I'm into: Alternative Rock, World, Jazz, Pop, R&B, Classical and anything that sounds good.
Book: Growing Up Weightless, Slaughterhouse-Five, Le Pere Goriot, A Canticle for Leibowitz, Lamb (The Godspel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal)
Browser: Safari
Film: The Boy in the Striped Pajamas, Hotel Rwanda, Persepolis, The Pianist, Pulp Fiction, Gattaca, Kelly's Heros, The Grey Zone, Monsignor, Apt Pupil....I prefer being at the theatre to watching a movie, but always being able to chose a play over a film is a foolish pipe-dream.
Hobby: SciFi, Kites and Photography
Image Editor: Photoshop
Language: English
MP3 Player: iPhone
Manga: Descendants of Darkness
Operating System: Leopard
TV Show: Current ... Being Human (television is a sad affair)
Wallpaper Style: I'm not good enough to have a style yet.

Cómo estás, amigo mío? ^^ Hope you're doing fine. It's nice to hear Houstonians don't just eat tacos whenever they think of Mexico. I wonder if you like any other specialties from Mexican cuisine.

Oh! So you like Chente (Vicente Fernandez)! I didn't expect that ^^ That's a good song too. I'll just ask the mariachi for one more __ song__ and I'll be happy ($150 USD per hour is abusing your generosity O_O, specially since you sent them more than a week ago :P).

See you soon in the Party Group :D Take care!
