About Me


What can I say about me….
MyHotComments
I’ve reached the age of 33. That small landmark happened on September 26, 2007. I haven’t accomplished everything I want in life… some I can still reach, others have pasted me by. For the most part however, I enjoy the experiences I lived and anticipate those in front of me.
I spent 9 years in the Army Reserve. Definitely my second family… two groups of soldiers in particular. First and foremost my beloved 361st QM Company… some of the best times in my military career happened with the 3-60-Thirst. From Hunter Liggett and our trip to San Francisco, to our weekend FTXs in Irvine, you pack the BBQ, the beer and the carne asada before the gear, the tools or the men. Then the men and women of the 319th SGBN who I spent 16 months with deployed to Kuwait. I’m proud to have served with each and every one of you.
I came home and after eight years of working for Security at a Casino, I realized I no longer belonged there. I miss the people… a few specific ones more than the rest, but life pulled me to a new calling... something familiar, but uniquely different at the same time. I found a new home working in the Petroleum Distribution Industry… and I’ve loved every day. I manage a small crew of hard working individuals and I can’t be happier with my career.
I’ve loved and lost along the way. I’ve learned that timing is everything. Without it, even best intentions won’t guarantee a successful relationship. I’ve learned that relationships are never easy, but they don’t have to be hard. Communication and the willingness to compromise is key. I’m very happy to say I’ve found a woman who I think agrees with me on this point. And to those who have came before… I thank you for the life lessons you given me. Let’s just pray I don’t screw this one up… lol.
I have a wonderful son. I know I am not the perfect father. I know my priorities are sometimes askew… but he is my greatest fan and I am his. I want him to experience all the things I missed out on growing up. Happy Family outings… camping trips, dirt bike rides, fishing trips… I want him to experience college at a four year school. I’m not mocking 2-year colleges… I went to them, but nothing beats the life lessons gained from a four year university.

This is and will always be a work in progress, so if you have any questions, please feel free to ask. I can be seen on AIM @ Desert Titan or YAHOO @ gregariousrecluse4life though honestly, I am hardly on IMs anymore.

My Interests


MyHotComments

I’m into a wide variety of things and pretty much up to trying anything.
I live for the outdoors. I had my Toyota Tacoma 4x4 which I used to terrorize the desert for 6 years before I traded her in on 6/28/07 for a '03 F-350 4x4 diesel. I loved that truck, but needed something I could stretch out in. I have my full-size Nissan Titan Crew Cab 4x4. I finally have my Kawasaki Brute Force 650 quad and Eclipse toy-hauling trailer. I love my father/son outings... the weekend trip with the guys etc. Terrorizing the desert, ravaging the Colorado River … or whatever adventure is in store.
I love to ride bicycles. I have (2) MT Bikes, a '01 GT I-drive and a '05 Cannondale Prophet. I used to ride every day for hours on end... 8 hours at work (I was a Security Officer (Bicycle Unit) for 8 years), then a couple more after hours just for fun… however I don’t get the chance as much nowadays. I think it has been over a year since I last sat on a saddle... need to seriously change that.

I'd like to meet:

I'd like to find old Army buddies: Basic Training Unit A-Company 1/28th Infantry Regiment, Fort Jackson, SC 2/28/1997 - 3/27/1997, AIT Unit: W-Company 244th Quartermaster Battalion, Ft Lee, VA 3/28/1997- 6/1997 all my friends from the 361st (3-60-Thirst) Quartermaster Company, Stanton, CA and of course all those of the 319th SGBN, Sacramento, CA and Augmented Soldiers from Puerto Rico, Hawaii and everywhere else.
So if you know anyone who was there at that time... send them my way.

Music:


I am not a fan of the I-Pod, instead I own the Creative Zen: Vision M. Still holds 30GB of music, photos, video and having a FM tuner to boot at a cheaper price and better interface with my PC… but that’s my opinion.
