I married Nancy Brooke Ostrander on September 27, 1996 at the Little White Chapel in Las Vegas, Nevada. We met on the indiepop list (an internet discussion list), which I ran at the time, even though at the time we lived three blocks apart in Seattle. She is the former proprietor of Cher Doll Records. She has transformed me from a chain-smoking, unemployable, marginally psychotic, twitching wreck into the more or less functional person I am now, and I love her more than anything.
