About Me
Yes, I am a dragon.*
Baxil [bakh-HEEL] is a name, not just an Internet handle. It's not the name I was born with. (I make no secret of my "human" name, but prefer Baxil for all but work/tax purposes or people who have an existing reason to call me otherwise.)
I am happily married to beautiful wife kadyg.**
The two of us live together in the beautiful foothills of California's Sierra Nevada*** with two black cats and f15h (plural-times-15 of fish). I don't care if you come to our house and actually count 19 18 over 30 (our guppies have been busy), they're still f15h, dammit.
My Big Crazy Adventure
In summer 2006, I attempted to walk the entire Pacific Crest Trail. I completed 916 miles before developing patellar tendonitis in the high Sierra. I journaled the trip along the way, and a more in-depth look is available at my website. [Trip FAQ]
My trail name is Redtail. There is, of course, a story behind it.
About My Journal
For a long while, LJ was largely a sideline for me. I kept my real journal at Tomorrowlands up until a few big server crashes took the wind out of my sails. (In May 2004, I switched to Movable Type, and mirrored the journal at tlands_dot_org, but that became irrelevant with the second server crash.) Now, I've migrated over here to keep the day-to-day writing habit fed. I try to be pretty diligent about tagging my entries in case you're interested in a particular facet of the multi-fauceted scarlet emerald of my life.****
Most of my journal is defiantly public*****; if I've friended you, respect my confidentiality, because friends-locked posts are that way for a reason. I also post a few items locked to hand-picked (not opt-in) subcircles of my social group, and a number of private notes-to-self/unfinished-posts, in case you're wondering about the numbers on the calendar view.
Other random journal-ey information:
- Have I commented on one of your posts? Usericon interpretation guide here.
- I try to maintain a relatively angst-free journal:
(source) ... please help me keep it that way by respecting my opinions and beliefs (or at least my right to have them).
- If you're the sort of person who enjoys needless and hyper-anal levels of detail, my friends-list policy is here. I'm kind of embarassed I bothered to write it, so the short version: Trust comes first. Also, I'm a slacker who never bothers checking his "friend-of", so please do speak up if you friend me! Otherwise I may never know!
Emergency contact information is here. [no, you can't see it. See meme.]

"Sierra" is Spanish for "mountain range." They're not the Nevada Mountains Mountains, people. *^4 I also seem to be developing quite a habit for footnoting my posts. *^5 Take that, public! |
