About Me

I just moved to the Huntington, West Virginia area. I work for Amazon. I was hired a seasonal employee but I quickly got promoted to full time. Perhaps I am meant to work in call centers the rest of my life. It sure beats grocery stores. I take a little bit of everyone I meet and where I have been to ultimately make me who I am today. That being said, I was born in Lakeland, Florida all though I grew up in Hinsdale and Olean, New York. I moved to Columbus, Ohio to attend college and live for 4 years after I graduated High School. I moved back from Columbus to Olean for a year before moving out to Houston, Texas for a year. After a year in Texas I moved back to Olean, where I have lived since October 2004. I love to travel. My family spent many summer and easter vacations in Frederick, Maryland and Raleigh, North Carolina. I have driven to Alabama a few times to visit my cousens down there. I have also been to St. Louis, Memphis, New York City, Las Vegas and San Diego for various vacations/road trips. I have been out of the United States a handful of times including Peru in 1994, Venezuela in 1998, Mexico in 2004 and went back to Venezuela in May of 2006. I have been to Canada more times then a hippy during the early 70s. I am planning a long awaited trip to Ecuador in 2008. I cant wait. I have friends spread all over the world. Each of the past 9 years my family has been involved with getting exchange students. We have had students from Venezuela, Ecuador and Mexico. Also I was very involved in an online game, called Everquest, that has allowed me to keep in contact with friends from all over the world including many road trips across the country to hang out with different people. I still have a lot of traveling to do and probably havent finished evolving into the person i am ultimately to become, but in the mean time ill keep you updated on here about my adventures.

My Interests

Spiritual discussions with Maria. Being there to talk to Lee Ann about whatever is on the agenda for the day. Watching and playing sports. Everquest. Going to the gym. Hanging out with friends. collecting shot glasses, magic cards, 80s GI Joe figures, ticket stubs and memories
