About Me

I play music. Sometimes with friends, sometimes just me. I think everyone in this town plays one instrument or another. It's kind of crazy. I quit UNO's Writer's Workshop to pursue carpentry at Metro Community College. Cabinetry and Finish Carpentry would be nice. I work at a public library as a clerk. It's interesting. I get paid ridiculous amounts of money to listen to people whine about pointless things. I want to live somewhere I will not have neighbors for at least 500 feet. I want to own and operate a tractor. I would like to grow some crop or another. I want to chop wood with an ax. I want to build and/or repair furniture. I would like to eat breakfast at a diner where if it got busy, the cook wouldn't have any apprehension about asking me to help him because we're tight like that. I want a horse and a donkey, and I want them to be friends. I would want my friends and family to visit me at my house that I built and see that I did accomplish something with my life.
