About Me

I always thought I'd be living overseas, yet I remain in the middle of the country somehow. That being said, I think things are looking brighter lately. KCP&L Entertainment district should put a little polish on the area, and I look forward to the new restaurants/bars. I just started a new job, and I'll be working from home a lot. (That scares me) I desperately need to find a new hobby.....preferably one that keeps me in shape. Please let me know if you think of anything.Much appreciated!
