About Me


Some Richard stuff that you probably don't care to know:
I don't sleep enough
I sometimes say or do stuff for the shock value/humor
I've taken a lot of pictures
Some people would say I drive too much
I'm not a very open person but I have gotten better over the years
I need a good digital camera and an eye exam
I've had Bell's Palsy three times
I have a small circle of close friends
I sometimes do things the hard way
I need to lose a little weight so I can be more mobile, especially at ringside (if I ever get back there)
I love kids,especially babies
I like to read while I eat
I collect too much stuff for my own good
I've never drank alcohol, never smoked
I like my head bald but I'm too lazy to shave it consistantly
I have a lot of wrestling dvds that I haven't watched
I've never been on a plane
I get motion sick but not all the time
I've been told I'm a good kisser
I think I'm a tad obsessive-compulsive
I usually sleep with only one sock on for some reason
I can play the drums.
I'm convinced I am Canadian but I can't prove it at all.
I am an excellent masseuse
I have an unfortunate habit of reading too much into things sometimes
I'm beginning to think that I put too much stuff in here and people feel there's nothing else to know about me
I don't think I'm gonna fall in love anymore. I don't think I'm good at it
I dislike reality tv and King Of the Hill
Guilty pleasure in wrestling? No such thing. I like who I like and what I like and I don't care if you like it so why would I feel guilty?

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who hasn't signed "the Book" yet. Someone that will give me a 2005 Upper Deck Sidney Crosby rookie card. Beyond that, someone I can make plans with and they might actually happen would be a nice change. Someone to share my road trips.

My Blog

Maybe It's All Perspective

Things have happened. Things that have made me stop and think a little. I sat here for a bit trying to think of how I was going to word this but I guess I have to do the way I'm best at. Just go.One f...
