I can't stand wasting time, so why am I on here?

About Me

For starters I enjoy listening, watching, and playing music. I thrive on people, their humor, culture, traveling, good food, a good drink...I could go on.I have been married for over four years and live in a home outside Nashville with my wife, our three cats, and a dog. I supose I'm living the American Dream, but am always looking for alternatives to that American Dream.I'm learning everyday how to be a better adult(which can suck, but is exciting), a better husband, and a better person in this crazy world of ours.I like to Read and Discuss politics, foreign policy, and pop culture. I love dry humor, being sarcastic, laughing at myself and often times others (ya know, not to be mean....I think it's called laughing with somebody).My hobbies include snowboarding, hiking, camping, and almost any activity outdoors. I definitely don't live to work I work to live, even though my career as a Social Worker is definitely rewarding. Finally, other than playing them I enjoy going to shows with friends or just hang'n outside at any local bar as long as it has a patio. Most of the time I enjoy staying in and hang'n out with my wife and our crazy pet children! PUT YOUR ABOUT ME SECTION HERE! Changes may take up to 2 mins to show on your profile

Television:

The Daily Show, The Office, The Soup, College and Pro Footbal, and mindless channel surfing.

Books:

I hope to have time to read a book agian one day.... mostly about history, political, religion, and thrillers but let me know of a good book and I'll put it on my list.

Heroes:

Certainly not politicians. Anyone who does what is right no matter what the majority thinks and without regard to political correctness.Most of all My Parents.
