All my best moves come from the pee pee dance.....

About Me

I love to laugh. My kid's are an excellent source for my minimum daily requirement of laughter. I am an Engineering Manager for a company here in Oklahoma. I am looking to get out and have some fun.I have learned in life that I occasionally take myself too seriously (those who know me would say that is a rare occasion indeed). We must be open to others, not only new people, but the people we have known for a long time. Recognize that the person you know today is not the same person you met five years ago. My house and heart is open to all.I have a friend that makes awesome masks, check him out at www.maskparade.com (this is not a spam, they are just works of art and should be appreciated)
