About Me


I'm a pirate and a ninja all rolled up into one human sized teddy bear. I am mostly Irish and German, and look every bit of it. I am the son of a gay ex-convict and a mother who was studying to be a nun. I love my mother and sister more than life itself, and will do anything to prevent them from ever getting hurt again. I have lived life to the fullest and experienced things most people have nightmares about. I have also experienced things people can only daydream about with a smile on their face. I used to have a huge chip on my shoulder, but now it's just a divot. I don't lie. I don't cheat. I don't steal. I don't drink. I smoke socially. I don't play games...especially when it comes to love. I have been through way too much to do the whole song and dance ritual...and on that note, I don't dance either. I hate liars and cheats. I hate fakers and counterfeit people with no clue of who they are and change who they are with everyone they meet. I tend to tell it like it is without regard for peoples feelings. Most people need to hear things like they really are, not sugar coated for their protection. I hate weakness and weak people. In an argument, when I see blood, I go for the kill and don't feel bad afterwards. I have burned too many bridges, but will continue to burn those who do not deserve my friendship, because it's in my nature. I have been extremely happy and I have been suicidal. I have been in love and I have been alone. I know fear and I know safety. I have been strong and I have been crushedby the weight of the world. I have been drunk, stoned, rolled, toasted, roasted, and all sorts of fucked up, but I prefer to be sober. It suits me better. I don't like people, in general. People, in general, are as dumb as sheep. I am not sheep. One on one, they can be ok, once you get to know them....people, not sheep...I don't know any actual sheep....I'm no farmer. Do they call people who raise sheep farmers?...I know shepards watch over sheep, but would a shepard actaually raise sheep?...hmmmmmmm.....I digress....I know who I am. I make no excuses for myself, my actions, or my reactions, for I am the one, the only, me, myself, and I. I am me; no one else but myself. There is only one me, and thank god for that, cause if there were more, the world would come to a sudden stop and everyone would float away...except for the people who strapped down in preparation for it all...and dogs...cause they can't float, cause that would be just plain silly...and monkeys, cause they have good grip with their opposable thumbs...and gorillas cause they are big....but seriously, I'm a dreamer...I dream big and will hopefully live a big life - ya know, the beautiful wife, beautiful kids and a big house with a picket fence around it - but I'm grounded enough to know what's gonna happen and what won't...
