Age 55--born and raised in semi-rural/suburban Oregon--have lived elsewhere--Belfast, Chicago, New York City, Toronto.  Now back to the starting point.  First-generation American.  Support my creative endeavors by work as a legal assistant--do have a JD degree.  Love art, writing, drawing, classical music, jazz.  Vegetarian but not fnatic.  As Raymond Chandler said of his character Phillip Marlowe, I'm puzzled but not quite defeated.
