CURRENT MISSION

To taste life through the people we meet, in whatever cafe we meet them in.

ABOUT ME

Jessica is the most beautiful woman in this world. She enjoys spending her time tormenting her husband through wordplay and jabbing her finger into his armpit or belly button. She also enjoys making fun of me while I type this. She loves music, plays the violin and torments me. She is more a fan of a quiet and deep conversation than idle chit-chat and other forms of such niceties. She is a woman of deep intellect, surprising wit and loves to understand where people come from. Her favorite colour is green, and she doesn't like it when you use her toothbrush.

Jim, on the other hand, finds delight in exaggerating the truth and making me (his wife) smile awkwardly at his oddities. Because he went away while it's my turn to write, he can't make fun of me while I type. heehee... He is silly and vivacious, but can also enjoy calm conversations. Sometimes Jim is willing and excited about playing the hand drum with me and is getting more adventurous in playing music with others, which gladdens my soul. [He's back, now, and can make fun of me while I type...too bad] He appreciates each person, is interested in their perspective, and will engage in their lives with wit and compassion.

We've been married 5 years, have no children (yet), and live in a community house with 9 others and a hairless dog who barks incessantly and is startled by his food and water dishes.

PHILOSOPHY

People, creatures, have great value, and we try to affirm that. We want to broaden our understanding and experience of life and those we share it with along the way.
