Hello out there in LJLand!
I've been lurking for a little while since my former boss,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
joebehrsandiego, let me know he was keeping a LiveJournal. Just before Joe left us for the Denver area, he also let another work colleague know so he could read an article about Portland, OR. While I knew that there might be raunchy goings-on on Joe's journal, I don't know if our colleague Charles knew what he'd be seeing! Maybe it's just as well Joe left then - although he never said a word, I always wondered if Charles had read any of Joe's posts on such things as Hairrison, and what he thought. Charles is a cool guy, so I don't think he would have been too shocked or surprised.
Anyway... I've had Joe's old job now for about 3 weeks, and it's been a crazy busy time. And, in a mad way, I'm enjoying it.
I need to learn some of the bells and whistles in LJ - such as how you hyperlink a LJ name, and weblinks - but I'll get the hang of it eventually. I'll also start adding 'likes & interests', quite a few of which I share with Joe (!). Can someone point me to where you find out how to use tags and things?
I'm a 42 year old guy of Scottish origin who's been out here since 1986 (citizen as of March 16, 2000). I enjoy travel, scifi, movies and theatre (I'm a big fan of and subscriber to our Diversionary Theatre here in San Diego, which does Gay and Lesbian themed plays - and not just 'Men in Underwear' things - they did "Beautiful Thing" last month, very well, even if some of the London accents were a bit shaky), hanging around in coffee shops (particularly enjoy Diedrich's in Hillcrest), trying to keep fit (Powerhouse membership, atrocious attendance), good food & true friends.
OK - think that's enough for the moment. Hi, Mark!
