About Me

I'm really a pretty simple and straightforward guy, doesn't take much to please me-- I treat those close to me like family. Love to live in the here and now because life is precious and awfully short. Grudges, anger and resentment are a waste of time and will take years off your life, so why bother? Miss all my family and freinds back east and wish somehow I could have them here, because I truly have found the closest thing to Utopia, and it's right here in Minnesota.

My Interests

Commish of the coolest wiffleball league in the nation, freelance web and multimedia design, severe Guitar Hero addict, singing when I can, rockin' out in my Saturn Ion, working out when the mood strikes, and trying to improve every day at being a good human being, a daily struggle indeed.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone and everyone... except potential future suitors for my daughters.

Music:

The Holy Trinity (for me): EXTREME, FUEL and DREAM THEATER. Also....Aerosmith, Avenged Sevenfold, Billy Joel, Bob Seger, Bon Jovi, Boston, Cake, The Commitments, Def Leppard, Eric Clapton, Fleetwood Mac, Guns N Roses, Howie Day, Journey, Kiss, Led Zeppelin, Rusted Root, Sister Hazel, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Van Halen, Whitesnake.

Movies:

Cloverfield, Any Star Wars film, The Big Lebowski, Dead Poets Society, The Bucket List, Waiting, Monthy Python.

Television:

The greatest show ever on TV was Twin Peaks, but... Breaking Bad, Heroes, Lost, Survivor, House, Friday Night Lights, Numbers, Kenny vs. Spenny, Family Guy, and any channel with the Red Sox, Patriots or Celtics on it.

Books:

Yeah, those? They don't interest me. They're certainly not a prerequisite for intelligence and I prefer to spend my time more constructively/creatively.

Heroes:

My fine family folk and fantastic friends who've stuck with me/by me.

Some catching up to do!

Okay, so I haven't blogged in a while-- in fact, I believe this will be my first one since we moved into the new house!  So much to talk about, where do I begin?? The move went really well, we go...

The eve of a huge day...

The computer desk I sit at here at home is virtually the only item that's left in its place... just about everything else is taken down, packed, or otherwise jostled from it's traditional position in ...

It's happening!

I wanted to wait just a bit for the situation to become a bit more concrete before I told everyone, but it is official:  we're buying a house!  It's in a semi-hick town about 15-20 minutes e...

Halloween deep freeze

Usually, I'll tag along as the wee ones venture out into the local 'hood for the annual ritual of hoarding away as much sugary goodness as possible in the time allotted.  You know, Trick or ...
