About Me

* Updated 05/11/08 *A lot of things can happen in a year. You finish your senior year of college, earn enough hours at work to begin getting vacation time. Maybe see your favorite sports team win a championship. Or, you could find someone who you are madly in love with that has been a perfect compliment to your life. Out of the four, I have enjoyed the last one. Steph and I have been dating for a year now. Things couldn't be better. I have gotten a new job and begun to dig myself back out of debt again. I have slowed down a lot when it comes to going out and drinking. I have even joined a gym ( Although its been awhile since that membership has been used...but I am making it a new priority on June 1st. )So I guess I just wanted to update and spread the smile that has been on my face for 12 months to everyone else. Life is simply grand right now.

My Interests

Socially, I am really into going to see live music, movies and just hanging out with friends. I go to see a lot of local live music in the Charlotte area and that is a big part of my life right now. I could also watch movies just about every day. love it. puts me at ease i guess.

I'd like to meet:

Sarah Silverman because for some reason I have a huge bone for her. Jack Bauer so I can hear him say "We are running out of time" , Kate Hudson because, well.....wow. A number of past influential people including John F Kennedy so I can ask him why it is not a more known fact that his family made thier fortune making alchohol during Prohibition, Adolf Hitler so I can kill him for myself.

Music:

aaaaaa......"THE QUESTION"....My music taste is varied and as as wide as a duck-billed platypus's booty. I am more into singer/songwriter music right now, I have enjoyed meeting some of the artists and bands the past couple years, local people and bands, like, Rayen Belchere, Ziad ,Tony Fisher Justin Case, and some more wide known acts, like Ari Hest, Michael Tolcher, Gavin Degraw, Pat Mcgee Band, Closet Pop Junkies, Meika Pauley , Will Bowen.On a more grand stage ...Nickleback, 3 Doors Down, Disturbed, Aerosmith, back in the day, Matchbox 20 , Cross Canadian Ragweed, 2nd Hanson CD (I catch enough shit on this one that a friend of mine has added my enjoyment of this CD into one of his songs!) , Velvet Revolver , Angie Aparo, Crossfade, Shinedown, Nonpoint and tons more. I like more and more country, of course, Johny Cash, Toby Keith, Brad Paisley , Rascal Flatts, I guess basically the "NEW" Country, although I can enjoy some of the old school Randy Travis and No Show George as well

Movies:

Due to my strange sense of humor, I love Kevin Smith Movies, the dumb-funny genre like Napoleon Dynamite,Monty Python and a serious side, such as Seven, Identity, Friday Night Lights, Armageddon, Ladder 49 , Miracle, Hoosiers, tons and tons more. I tend to quote movies everyday, somehow my roomate and I seem to find a movie quote for just about any sitatuon.

Television:

I watch 24 religiously , Sportscenter, The Sarah Silverman show, The Discovery Channel and the Food Network.

Books:

When I said I'd give my right arm for you, I didn't think you'd aske me for it, but you did. You said, Give it to me. And I said OK. " Rebecca Brown, "FORGIVNESS"

Heroes:

Nobody in particular per se, But I admire any of our armed forces AND THIER FAMILIES for what they give me every day...The ability to sleep on the blanket of protection that they provide every night. Thank you, to my grandfather and every person who is doing what they believe in.
