About Me

Simply put, what you see is what you get. I'm a son, brother, uncle, best friend, cancer survivor, proverbial nice guy, hopeful romantic, and loyal to the point it's unhealthy sometimes. I have a big heart and I wear it on my sleeve. It gets messy that way, but I won't change who I am for anyone. I'm honest and hate games. I'm a bit shy when you first meet me. I work as a commissions and licensing specialist at an insurance service general agency. I love it, but not what I want to do for the rest of my life. I'm currently in the process of buying my first house. For fun look at my general section. I find it's the imperfections in people that make them unique and beautiful. I live in the northern kentucky/greater cincinnati area about 10 minutes south from downtown. I'm working on bettering myself each and every day. Anything more you'll have to ask

Angels and Airwaves

I picked up the Angels and Airwaves disc today. Nothing ground breaking, but more mature songwriting from Tom Delong. Not the typical pop punk stuff you're used to from this Blink 182 alum. It's lyric...
