    Once you label me, you negate me. -- Soren Kierkegaard

    I earn my living by writing code, but I am many things. Focusing on any one of them would paint a very one dimensional picture of the onion that is I. I've always felt sorry for people that choose to sum up their lives by their profession.

    The question is, "What do you do?" not, "What is your profession?"
    I can't help that you conflate the two. I am a neuroscientist. Trust me, you don't do it for the pay. So I'm lucky to have one of those jobs that is more than a job, it is a passion. However, I am also a writer of melodies, dabbler in whatever,love my family and wife, and so on.
