About Me

I am happily married to a woman that most people doubt is my wife when I introduce her. (She is very hot and I am... well... not.) Got two kids that are crazy. Bailey's 5 and Chris is 2. Bailey is loud and opinionated and Chris believes he is indestructable. My world pretty much revolves around family life.Other than that I am a classical trained percussionist who no longer plays. I teach a little on the side but I don't play a lot. I have recently been rediscovering my guitar, which is cool, but still quite can't pull off anything cool, which is not.AS far as why I am here... I don't know. I just needed a way to keep in touch with people and this seemed quick and easy. So shoot me a line if you've known me in some way or you'd like to. (Please no new hot chicks as I have already used up my quota for life with my wife.)
