About Me

Until last year I managed a Comedy Club in Madison, WI. Then I managed a restaurant in Cottage Grove. And now I manage a restaurant in Cambridge. I'll be there for a few months until we open another new one somewhere else. So that means I hang out with comics and bartenders and drink a lot. It also means that I go to bed just before the sun comes up and sleep way later than I should when I'm not working. I have an unhealthy addiction to seeing the Dave Matthews Band play live. I'd rather read a book than sit in front of the TV watching what America says that I should be watching, so I guess it's cool for me that my mom works at a book store and I get tons of books whenever I go home. I swear too fucking often and don't eat enough vegetables(sorry mom). I am a firm believer that Bob Uecker calling a Brewers' game is the finest radio you can find. Drinking in a chill bar where you can relax while listening to a kick-ass jukebox sounds, to me, like a much better idea than a meat-market bar where you can't move and have to shout to talk to the person next to you.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Russ Feingold, Eddie Vedder, Dave Matthews, President Bush-so I can punch him, anyone who read all the way through my "about me" section without skipping ahead, my Grandpa Hoerig(again, he passed while I was too young to remember), Keira Knightley, anybody who wants to go tailgate before a baseball game with me, Megan Fox, Ryan Braun, anyone who wants to go see a Dave Matthews Band concert at Alpine Valley, my dreamgirl...

Vegas, Baby

They say that what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.  Yeah, that's because unless you catch something or win/lose big you don't really remember much of it.  I know that I played a lot of...
