About Me

Get Your Own! | View Slideshow It is amazing the freedom you get by letting go.
Victoria I don't care if it hurts,
I want to have control,
I want a perfect body,
I want a perfect soul.
Radio Head Lovers don't finally meet somewhere, they are in each other all along.
Rumi When it comes to life's experiences,
I don't want to think I've only seen the tip of the iceberg,
I'd rather think I haven't even found the ocean yet.
Me What lies behind us and what lies before us
are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.
Ralph Waldo Emerson Out beyond the ideas of right doing and wrong doing, there is a field,
I'll meet you there.
Rumi Some people live in the fast lane, I live in oncoming traffic.
Saw it on an old man's hat at Denny's Yep I said it before and I'll say it again. Life moves pretty fast,
you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Ferris Bueller Look I'm sorry... but I'm attracted to damaged, dysfunctional
people, and you're just too normal. The only way to judge your growth... as a human being, is by making sure you don't repeat the same mistakes over and over.
Cox Don't you understand,
I already have a plan,
I'm waiting for my real life to begin.

Okay, first... I thought the picture of the tree on my profile was cool, so I used it. I'm not all gloomy, broken hearted, emo, or anything like that. Quite far from it. :)

Hmmmm... here is where I try to come up with something clever and witty, something that would impress people. ;) However, I'm not good at all of that stuff, so I'm just going to be myself.

I'm Joe, I'm 38, and I'm a Software Engineer at a medical systems corporation, I design medical equipment. NO, that doesn't mean I'm a total geek, I don't watch Star Trek, I don't own a pocket protector, and I don't think getting the latest memory upgrade is the sh!t. :) But I am an engineer... so does that put me in geekdome anyway??? :) I'm a single dad, I have a daughter and a son, a matching set. :) They are sooooo AW E S O M E. We have a great time together. They are a part of my life... it's a package deal.

Let's see, I've been told I'm fun, I like to G o o f off at times, I like to play. ;) However, I can also be all Mr. Responsible as well, as most people can. What else.... I have a casual personality, I don't get bent out of shape over much, I don't scream and yell when I get upset, or anything like that. I hate it when people do that, freak out over stupid stuff. I'm the same person each time you talk to me or see me, I'm always Joe. :) I'm not all Eeyore one day, then happy the next, then pissed the next. Nope... I'm very stable. I'm VERY much "what you see is what you get." :)

Let's see... what else... maybe some cheesy stuff... I like hugs, I love snuggling on the couch sharing a pillow (spooning if you will), I love kissing someone with fresh breath... that "just brushed" kind of thing, you know... minty. :) I like wine... but that doesn't mean anyone else has to.

Can't think of anything else right now, especially since I'm just creating this page and almost no one knows it exists. It's like talking to myself. :)

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Friends... people to hang out with, people to go out with. I gotta spend less time worrying about stuff that doesn't matter, and remember to live. I want to experience, that's it, just experience... anything, everything, all kinds of things. Love and experiences...they are the only things you can take with you.

From Joes heart...

This morning I was driving to work and I saw an accident.  There was a dead body in the middle of the road covered in a sheet.  The very first thing I thought to do was to send a text messag...

The beautiful lie

There are people you fall in love with... one you so desperately want to be with, learn about her, explore with her.  You want to give her your world, all of it, you want to build a life with her...

Never forget you're alive.

Those of you who know me know I say "It can always be worse" all the time.  One thing we can never do is forget we're alive.  Never forget that we are free.  One thing many people don't...

Just some thoughts

You moved within me, drifting through my skin as sunlight through shadow, me being powerless to prevent it   You are in my veins, I feel you beneath the skin, touching, as if trying to get o...
