The ONLY reason to live

About Me

37-still young, opinionated, but willing to listen. I am so much more liberal now....or maybe I am just in the middle, seeing the best and worst from both sides and picking what seems to fit...No, I do not like the current administration,nor the so-called war on terror(which is more of a war on our civil rights), but God Bless The U.S. always and may our troops get back home real soon, like my brother-in-law, Terry Marvin, stationed in Kuwait..safe, for the moment.I am doing my best to be a writer for once, I am a student (again!, darn MBA-but almost done!-yay), married to a kiwi woman- that means she is from New Zealand for all those geographically impaired, and we now have a beautiful baby boy who is 1 old and growing like crazy! I love him soooo much!I sometimes feel all alone in the world, but really, I am blessed with awesome friends:Pam, Colette, Lyanna and Terry, Ann,and,Mickey my little sister.Last summer I made a ton of new ones, but I am not sure they know how much I really have grown to respect, care, and love them. I mean, I do not know if we are friends because friends share, talk, communicate...all that stuff...and I guess in these modern times, that is just the way it goes. Anyway, props and love always to Katie(world's greatest mgr.),Alex(trouble),Ashley(more trouble), Staci(her smile could light up Alaska when it's dark), Stacy P.(another great smile), The Twins Ashley and Courtney, Kelsey(don't ever count her out!), Tabs(I will always love that laugh), Amber(bounce, baby, bounce),Bridget(always has my love), Kimmy(the first and only),Corey(thanks,I feel taller already, wink, Robin, The Girl Wonder, Riley my goddess, and my Fighting Irish queen Katey! OH, and I can't ever, ever forget Sara and Laura! :)My bros: Nelson, Mark, Matt, Reba, Vinnie, Scott, Tim(hey, he's only spastic, not unreliable!)Rich my boss (owe you a lot bud),Jordan,Drew and Drew, little Eric (yeah, ok..kid towers over me) Southside Sam, the other Alex, Chris, Ryan The Legend Killer(in time, in time, just watch)Cory(have no idea what Alex sees in him...lol..j/k),Ker(brother, you rock), Dan The Man(kid is as cool as the other side of the pillow), Ryan in the office(Robin knows he's her hero) and even Shawn...lol.(Note-Update 9-15-06..I feel bad that it just hit me now that Jeff and Pete belong on here! YOU do not have any idea how much they backed us up this year. Props and much love to The Dynamic Duo.)It's the ones you thought you had that can hurt you by their ignoring you or forgetting you that seem to stick out...do yourself a favor...just be glad for the close ones and leave it at that, if you can. Some days I do, somedays I miss them and cry just a bit.Oh, and if you ever read this-Meagan, I so do not hate you, but I can't make you love me. I guess my biggest crime against you was smiling at you, calling you a hero, and thinking you were hot...yeah, what a dick I turned out to be.

My Interests

Writing, Reading, Movies, Walks, Conversation, playing with my adorable 1 year old (he's already talking, standing, and beating me up...lol!)Update:12-28-06-Okay, he knows sign language! I didn't teach him and neither did his mother, but my mom knew sign language....and Roman constantly becomes calm when he gets upset and smiles...at the air....yeah, I believe in ghosts.

I'd like to meet:

Bill Clinton, Cindy Sheenan, Joel Olsteen, Scarlet Johansen (I think that is how she spells it), Catherine Zeta-Jones, Leonard Cohen, Michael Moore, Colin Powell, Barry Bonds-still cool with me, Kevin Smith..well, I did meet him but I didn't get to talk with him and that's what I would want, The Rock,Green Day, U2, and Christy Hemme, because I know there's more to her than that gorgeous frame of hers.
