About Me



MySpace Countdown
I mainly use myspace to keep up with various bands and such. I am not opposed to using myspace to keep up with people, but at this point I predominantly use facebook to keep up with friends and acquaintances.
I am blessed with the ability to go to my job for 40 hours a week. I am fortunate to have a job that I truly enjoy and that compensates me well for my efforts.
I try to work out 4 or 5 times a week. I believe that keeping one's body healthy and strong is important.
I play and collect Magic the Gathering. I prefer to play in the Legacy format but also enjoy Standard, draft, and sealed deck tournaments. I mainly collect cards from the earliest sets (1993-1996) and my favorite set to collect cards from is the Arabian Nights expansion.
I am a horror fanatic.
I absolutely love Halloween and Christmas.
I think I am addicted to candy! Some of my favorites are Milk Duds, Peanut M and Ms, Mamba, Snickers, candy corn, and circus peanuts. I am not picky though. I am an equal opportunity candy devouring machine!!! I also love cakes, pies, brownies, ice cream, cookies, kids cereal, and all that other great stuff!!!
I enjoy cooking and love to barbeque. Better than cooking is EATING!!!
I believe Diet Coke is truly the "nectar of the gods". I love Chipotle burritos.
I love to wear a great pair of jeans with a cool shirt and a kickass pair of boots, and in cool weather a jacket to really bring it all together.
I have formerly worked in some haunted houses playing (usually at least) the role of "LEATHERFACE". One of my dreams is to get into the horror movie industry (even if it means low budget films) and work as horror villains. I am particularly inspired by the Michael Myers, Leatherface, and Jason Voorhees characters.
I enjoy dressing up, singing, and playing bass like Gene Simmons from KISS' Destroyer era. I would like to eventually join an existing KISS tribute band or start a KISS tribue band.
I am a huge animal lover. I am a friend of the Kansas City Zoo, have a pet bunny rabbit, and am also a tropical fishkeeper.
I regularly attend concerts, sporting events, pro wrestling events, the cinema, and theater.
I enjoy browsing the shelves of used record and book stores.
I mess around on the guitar, bass, and banjo.
I am a die hard fan of the Kansas City Royals baseball team and a professional wrestling fanatic.
I enjoy reading and find that I don't do as much of that as I'd like to these days.
I love Kansas City and the Kansas City area.
I love to visit Branson, MO.
It is my goal to one day own a small farm (40-100 acres) and have a nice sampling of animals (ie goats, sheep, cows, horses, chickens, turkeys, rabbits) with a pumpkin patch, "haunted" barn, a corn maze, fresh apple cider, and other such things as a side business during the Halloween season.
I'm moving to the country in less than a month. I'm going to raise goats.
Anything else... Just ask.
