I work hard, but I make damn good money...and that's what it's all about, right?! I am a writer (2 novels and counting). I am a father (2 kids: Nina, 10, & Nathan, going on 7). I am a musician (guitar). I am a song-writer (15 songs and counting). I like all sorts of music but tend to hang my hat on country. I am renting a big house out in Wheaton. I like to cook (I cook a mean steak, let me tell you). I like to read extensively (I'm all over the board when it comes to topics). I drive a 2003 Grand Am SC/T, silver with racing stripes on the hood. I tend to be a neat freak; but what's wrong in keeping a place clean, you know? I have met the most amazing woman, and I owe it all to MySpace. Her name is Sarah, and she has stolen my heart and my soul. You see, I had been in love twice before her and been let down both times. I swore off relationships after the last time and told myself never again. But then one day I received a message in my Inbox on MySpace from this absolutely gorgeous individual telling me she found me intriguing. I replied back, never expecting things to go anywhere. But the most amazing thing happened. The seed took root, and love has blossomed. I've never felt love such as the love I've found with Sarah. I want to spend the rest of my life making her happy now. She's shown me that love is not a bad thing...in fact, it's the most wonderful thing any one can hope to find. I am a dreamer and tend to live my life amongst the clouds. I had a cat named Mr. Hemingway (a black farmer cat with 6 toes on his front paws). He passed away a couple years back. I haven't built up the courage yet to give it another go ahead. I've heard it said that pets are an investment in tragedy. I work out consistantly: Monday, Wednesday and Friday...like clockwork. I keep myself in shape. I feel all 3 sides of my health pyramid are equal and vibrant: physical, mental and spiritual. I believe spirits walk among us. Life is meant to be lived. Carpe Diem is my mantra. Sieze the Day, for one day you'll be nothing more than plant fertilizer.There is life. There is death. All else is just relative.
