Bio
I'm a retired programmer/software engineer, living in the Pacific Northwest with my wife of 40-odd years, some housemates, and two cats. In addition to caring for my wife, who's disabled, I'm dealing with stress, chronic depression, and anxiety.
I write blog posts, songs, and the occasional poem, play guitar passably well, and can sometimes be persuaded to sing.
