About Me

My goal in life is to finish my novel and also to become a grumpy old man. Someone who yells at kids who play baseball in front of my house. Someone who smokes a cigar in a bathrobe and talks about stuff like "When I was young, we had tape recorders not ipods, we didn't have no remote controls when you wanted to change a channel, you had to get up off your ass and turn a dial yourself, and gas was under a dollar per gallon!" Someone who cares basically.
