-i have a cat, named baxter. maybe you've seen his
+through making this website i think i am looking for something, i think it is connecting with others, building community. if any of what i have here resonates with you, please feel free to reach out via the [guestbook](/site/guestbook) or [contact](/site/contact) me
-homepages, maybe you've seen me gush about him in the
-32-Bit Cafe discord server. whatever the case, it must be
-said that i love my cat so much. him and i have been
-through a lot together, and we look out for each other as
-any human and pet that has formed a bond would. he knows
-me well and i know him well. we both don't like loud
-noises, nor do either of us really like dogs barking.
-we both look forward to meals, though i think he has a
-better appetite than i do most of the time. he knows the
-value of relaxing, something i've only learned recently.
-i hope to one day master his understanding of being
-present, and being in the moment. throughout my life i've
-had some wonderful pets that have allowed me to learn just
-as much about myself as i did them. from birds,
-to a rabbit, to wonderful dogs. you might like to read
-more about my life with animals

-music has been a big part of my life, both playing and
-listening to it. the creative process of making music
-and the discovery of new music to listen to is a healing
-process in itself that has helped me through much of my
-life. my tastes have shifted greatly as i've grown, and
-i've come to love music i never once thought i would as
-an angsty young teenager. you can read more about music
-and my relationship with it [here](/life/music)

-in terms of other arts, i'm most drawn to photography,
-and was quite into it as a teenager. i had a 35mm slr as
-during the time film was still easy to get developed at
-a store and film slr cameras were very cheap 2nd hand.
-i would really like to revisit this hobby, in particular
-due to a new found interest in birding. i'd very much like
-to capture photos of all the fun birds that stop by during
-the day for a quick snack. i'd also like to return to
-taking photos of my most favorite subject, flowers.
-flowers are quite beautiful, and the high resolution of
-digital photography makes for stunning images.
-you can read more about my history with photography and
-how i want to pursue it
-further [here](/life/photography)

-an early love of mine was computers and technology in
-general. i have fond memories of looking at circuit
-boards and imagining little cities full of streets and
-buildings all connected working together. computers and
-technology fed an early developed need to always know more
-and to go further with understanding. there was always
-something new to learn in a wide variety of topics. i
-eventually pursued a degree in tech and worked for many
-years in tech support, eventually parting ways with full
-time work at the advice of a doctor. i still find a
-fondness for tech, and am currently learning javascript as
-i've always loved the puzzle solving programming offers.
-if you'd like to learn more about my relationship with
-technology throughout my life, you can do so

-i think that's enough about me, i hope you've taken a
-look at those links sprinkled throughout or maybe saved
-them for later. if you wouldn't mind, i'd like to know
-more about you! if you're up for it, you can send me an
