I am here for Friends

About Me

My name is Matthew Croxton. Everyone calls me either "Croxton" or just plain "Crotch". Anyway, I was born in Port Charlotte, Florida and I lived there until I was seven years old. After several years of coming to Fort Payne for the June Jams, my parents decided to move us to Rising Fawn, Georgia. There I attended Dade County Primary School for my second grade year. The following year we moved to Valley Head, Alabama and I began my life in this somewhat boring place that we call DeKalb County. Now, let's fast forward through the boring stuff....

Okay, here we are: I'm a happy guy. I've got "floofy" blonde hair and greenish-blue eyes. I work at O'Reilly Auto Parts in Fort Payne, and I'm always hanging out in town. I live each day trying to be the best person that I can. I am a sinner and I make mistakes. I don't go to church as often as I should, but I believe in God and the love for his children. I want to make the most of my life before I leave this body. My body is just my shell. My soul is who I am. I don't like having enemies, though I may have a few, I will do my best to be your friend. If I do something that hurts you please tell me, it was more than likely unintentional. My family has kept me sane, no matter how crazy some of them may be. My friends are second to none. I have a select few that have really stood by and encouraged me, and I love them. Thank you.

I love music. I play guitar, bass guitar, piano, and I try to be coordinated on a drum kit. Ethan and myself have a little project we call "Speakers For The Moon" and we're having a blast. I'm putting my heart and soul into making music and I'm hoping it will turn out to be a good thing. I truly would be lost without it.

I am a really fun-loving guy and I enjoy being the center of attention. Scratch that, I just like to make people laugh. This trait of mine won me the votes of my senior class as being the "Class Clown" and "Loudest" out of our bunch. I have the ability get along with just about anyone, as long as they are not a co-worker that isn't doing their job!

I obviously get my use out of my 50-dollar-per-month cable internet, and aside from MySpace and Facebook, I enjoy finding good deals on eBay, as well as selling on the site. Between my mom's artwork and my brother's car parts, we have been using it as a source of additional income since 1999.

I love cars, I have been working on them since I was 10 years old. I'm mostly into Ford and Chevrolet and I am not really into the import scene. You'll probably catch me ridin' around in a Black '01 Ford Police Interceptor, but sometimes I may even be driving a loud, primer-red '83 Camaro. It's the only one around like it so if you see it you better flag me down!


My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Hopefully I will meet Jesus Christ someday. Other than that it's gonna be pretty much anyone that I can hold a decent conversation with. I am an open-minded person and I don't mind talking to different people. Also, I'd like to meet anyone who's music I listen to and/or play. Especially Incubus (1/23/07), U2, Dave Matthews, Jay Leno, Conan O'Brien, Geddy Lee, Victor Wooten, Dave Grohl, Ed Roland, Michael McDonald, Paul McCartney, Jim Morrison (RIP), Jimmy Buffet, Jerry Jeff Walker, James Taylor, Justin Pierre, Max Bemis, Aaron Marsh, Dennis Quaid, Chevy Chase, Dudley Moore (RIP), Chip Foose...there are so many more.

A wonderful waste of time.

It's about time to make a decision here. These empty promises are getting old, and I'm just going to have to stop planning my life around them. I've done my best to do my part, and I feel that I have ...

That’s Why I’m Here...

She Will Be Loved...one way or another.

Have you ever had an opportunity to tell someone how you really feel, but then have them do something that makes you hold back from telling them? Not to mention that that "something" that they did inv...
