About Me

I grew up in Upper Darby,Pa. I've lived in Collegeville, Pa for the last 6 years. Love the neighborhood; hate the distance from the city. I miss being able to head downtown and be there in 20 minutes.

I have 2 fantastic daughters. I have a great day job as a computer programmer.

My main hobby/second job is music. I play bass guitar, guitar, keyboards and I sing. I've played with a few cover/original bands in the philly area such as Saved by Zero , Flesh Tuxedo, Miles Road, Tapping the vein, and the Swizzle Pigs (oh the dubious names we came up with). I am currently playing with a wonderful original trio called CrackerJack Gypsies

I like traveling (though I don't get to do it nearly enough), Food (especially Indian...read my blogs), some TV shows, movies, and overthinking.

My Interests

Music, Movies, Overthinking, Computers, Travel, Food, History, Religion, chit-chatting....

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who can explain how velcro works (I still don't get it). Anyone who can touch their toes without bending their knees (that's my new goal...I literally have dreams about it...I need to have loftier goals). Whoever came up with Pi (brilliant, just brilliant). Fellow single parents. Fellow musicians. Anyone who can cook (especially Indian food...Mmmmmmm). Anyone and everyone else. Except maybe people who watch golf on tv. I find that distrubing.

Music:

Lelia Broussard , Rush,

RAMMSTEIN
, Billy Joel, Duran Duran - Save a Prayer '87

My Blog

I’ve closed another chapter in my life (I BOUGHT A NEW CAR!!!!!)

Yes indeed. I am not the proud owner of a 2008 Toyota Sienna. You might say I'm pretty domesticated for having a minivan. Of course I'm domesticated; I'm a parent. This came after 5 years o...
