This meme has been making its round with techie bloggers– I was tagged by my good friend Ben Scheirman, here are five things you might not have known about me:
- I love books and I read tons of them, ALL the way through, cover to cover, including the introduction, preface, afterward, acknowledgments and bibliography.
- I got my first computer, a Commodore 64, when I was 7; during initial setup I couldn’t find the ‘any’ key.
- When I was 11, I wanted to move to Canada and become a nature photographer, how I became a programmer is another story.
- My nickname Shey was given to me by my 4th grade teacher, Mrs. Graham, my real name is hideously difficult to pronounce.
- My favorite cafe ever is Empire Café in Houston. The coffee is awesome and the food is delicious, my favorite place to be on a cold Houston winter night.
Watch me kill this meme, I tag:
