About Me


Get More at COMMENTYOU.com Alright, thanks for coming to see me, and if I haven't seen you in a while.... sorry! I am a
Get More at COMMENTYOU.com in Mankato, MN. I am also a Paramedic student right now, and will be graduating in May 2009.. yep I screwed up again. Here's my educational background.... I slept through HS and graduated with honors. After that, I went through 4 different majors, at 3 different Universities/colleges, in 2 different states. 10 years I've been out of HS and I'm only going to have an A.A.S.... I should have a freaking Ph.D by now! Or two?I have a huge family, extended family that is,and I love every one of them equally. Family is very important to me, and I will drop everything at a moments notice for a family memeber that needs help, it's who I am. This includes my new found "road" family. I would do anything for any of them at any time. Speaking of love... Check out my blog about that cuz I've found some real gems!OK, so I'm a firefighter... a 4th generation firefighter at that. This is what I finally want to do. When I graduate, I'll be a Firefighter/Paramedic, instead of an EMT.I was in the Air Force for a while and miss it a lot. I am patriotic through and through.I also work rock and country concert, theatre shows... I love doing that too, and I was lucky enough to get hooked up with Poison in 2006 and I was a pyro technician for them in 2007... and as the great Hammer told me, I was a "part-time arsonist/Full time firefighter!" Working with the guy who, with Pyro Pete, started the indoor/Rock 'N Roll pyrotechnics trade was awesome! One of the coolest experiences of my life. Rumor has it that I will be back on the road again next summer, we'll have to see.Enough rambling. Feel free to post comments, send me love, vent, whatever. TTYL.... Anybody shocked by this element thing?
