The best you can is good enough

About Me

I've got it good. Good food, good folks, good fun. Work and pay ain't that bad, either. I've been around SoCal my whole life, but having a home of my own and a good job for awhile now makes my life seem so... lucky. Yeah, I've still got to represent myself right. Still got setbacks and life's roadblocks to overcome, but that's when I get my shit together, shake it off, have some fun with it, and keep on the best I can with what it is I got.

My Interests

Kickbacks with Friends, Running, Singing, Dancing, Basketball, Bowling, Relaxing at Home, BBQs, Fun Conversation and Good Times

I'd like to meet:
