If you're going through hell, keep going. -W.C.

About Me

I love cars, going to the dirt track races in Petaluma, driving like a racecar driver, hanging out with my boy, Kenny and our dog, Alex. I deeply enjoy hanging out with friends, drinking Peet's coffee and talking smack. I love Las Vegas, how cliche, but I do. I'm a workaholic, no matter what line of work I'm in, which is rather ironic, as I used to be ANTI-work & ANTI-rent for many years- what can I say, the devil got my soul.

My Interests

Going to dirt track races, going to drag shows, spending hours looking at Craigslist, reading short stories, making plans and not following through with them.

I'd like to meet:
