I am here for Friends

About Me

Everyone says I work too much, but sometimes I thrive on staying incredibly busy. Not to mention, the bills don't pay themselves. Music is a huge part of my life and I play bass in a band called Late Arrival . I have some of the greatest friends a person could ask for and I try to keep a positive outlook on life. I suppose that's pretty much me in a nutshell...

My Interests

Music:

First and foremost, I'm a Bon Jovi fanatic (go ahead and laugh, I'm used to it!), Rolling Stones, Counting Crows, Led Zepplin, Dezeray's Hammer / Albert Hill, The Sheriff's Daughter, Elvis, Hootie, U2, Johnny Cash, Rage Against the Machine, Lit, The Who, Aerosmith, Def Leppard, Will Hoge, Bruce Springsteen, Jump Little Children, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Butch Walker / The Marvelous 3, Dayroom, AC/DC, Guns n Roses, Journey, The Beach Boys (another one that tends to strike humor.. or dread for those who ride in my car!), R.E.M., Hank Williams, CCR, Pearl Jam, Dexter Freebish, Bob Dylan, Maroon 5, The Beatles, Bob Seger, Cowboy Mouth, Weezer, Green Day, Gran Torino, Ben Folds Five, Tonic, Better Than Ezra, Tom Petty, The Doors, Collective Soul, Neil Young, The Grateful Dead, Van Halen, Buddy Holly, Billy Joel... you get the idea.

Movies:

Anything that makes me laugh.

Television:

The cable company is evil and I have officially cancelled my subscription. So it's strictly CBS, FOX, and NBC for me these days, with the aid of my oh-so-tacky rabbit ears that sit majestically atop my television set.

Books:

Usually non-fiction. I like to read about psychiatric disorders and serial killers. Which I guess are somewhat related...

Heroes:

Ms. Pac-Man. So much energy and all she eats is fruit and pretzels. Personally, I'd have to stop for a quarter pounder with cheese and a large fry somewhere along the route.

My Blog

I'm not dead...

... I just moved!  And we still don't have the internet.  Nick bought a house in Ware Shoals and I moved there with him in April.  It's nice being out in the country, so to speak. ...

Sick Day

Why do I always feel so GUILTY for calling in sick?  I hardly ever do it, and if I do it's because I really am sick.  And even though the last thing I should do is go spread my sickness to t...

Moving...

Once again, I am moving.  This time, to Ware Shoals.  Hopefully everything will be moved within the next couple of weeks.  Anyone want to be extremely kind and help me pack?   I am...

Guess who just bought a Ms. Pac-Man machine..

Yep!  Finally, after years and years of wishing I had one, I am now the proud owner of a Ms. Pac-Man arcade game which is sitting in my living room right now.  Come and play with me!

Late Arrival

Well, we finally have a 5-song demo recorded (thanks to JD!), and now we are just waiting on the mastered copy to be completed.  I just set up our Myspace page and I think I will put at least one...

I think that everyone should try...

The new "Snack Wrap" from McDonalds.  Yes, it is that good.  No, I do not work for McDonalds, nor do they pay me to promote and advertise.  I have developed a severe addiction to these ...

I guess it's better than selling stickers for a living...

I love my job.  I really do.  I enjoy what I do and I get along with the people I work with.  But if anyone hears of a full-time psych-related position in Spartanburg that is open, PLEA...

One of those surveys that I never do...

I usually tend to be fairly anti-survey, but I thought "hey... why not?"   Your senior year in High School is supposed to be "the best year of your life." Let's see how much you remember. I know ...

I've always wanted to live downtown

I quit my job today.  Actually, I put in my notice today.  My last day will be February 24th.  I'm not sure whether to be relieved or scared to death.  But I refuse to get sucked i...
