I'm No Different

About Me

My life revolves around working with animals and playing the ska music.
I'm 18, in school, have a deep ass voice, and I'm almost always broke. I love my animals to death and would do ANYTHING for them. I have an amazing girlfriend named Becky. She's a baller. I work with my mom and brother at Fuzzie Buddies with a bunch of friends that think I'm weird. My dad treks through the US delivering the stuff you drink everyday. I play the drums in 3 bands, a ska punk outfit (The Pants), a disco/hardcore band (Paranoia Dance Party!) and a band that can't decide what it wants to be (Good Luck, Malarchuk). Everyone in those bands are family to me, and we have great times.
I'm not edge, but I'm clean. I don't steal, I like to walk places, I want to get a bike, and my phone is almost always dead on Sundays. I'm Catholic and I always have been. I don't care if you are or not, just leave it as is.
As animals go, I have a sold black cat named Mr. T, an albino corn snake named Kramer, and a fawn and white American Pitbull Terrier named Chaos. These are my kids. I want to find a English Bulldog eventually, but that may have to wait for a while. I can talk about dogs all day. When I get older, I want an English Bulldog, Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, and a Fawn and White Boxer (Along with Chaos)
I have no clue what I'm doing with the rest of my life, but if the people involved in it now are apart of it, then I will be happy
