About Me

I am from the Great state of TEXAS! I was born in Abilene and grew up in Lubbock until I joined the Military. I have been in the US NAVY since 1996, and I can honestly say that I have enjoyed every minute of it! We even got to live in Iceland for 3 years! I am currently stationed at NAS Staten Island in New York for the second time in my career.
I am VERY happily married to my lovely wife, Norel. We have been married for ages now or at least it seems that way (LOL) because we know each other so well! I know it's hard being a military wife, but she takes it all in stride. It's so comforting to know that no matter what I do, where I go, or how long I'm gone, she'll be there waiting for me and supporting me 100%. I love her with all my heart & soul!
We bought our very first home 2 years ago, a truck (for Norel), a newer suburban (for me) AND a new puppy my wife named Manu Ginobili! Life has been both exhausting and exhilarating all at the same time! We're loving it!
I am currently going to school to get my Bachelors degree in Business. School is great I just wish I would have finished sooner and not procrastinated with it as much.
There's not much to me, really. I am very laid back and easy going and I LOVE to joke around with people. I'd like to think I can get along with anyone but, there's always those few who can manage to get to you!
I consider myself pretty lucky to have a family like mine. Both of my parents are alive and well. They have been married since forever and are still going strong. My only wish is that Norel and I will have the same kind of loving relationship at that age. I also have two sisters & two brothers that I miss very much. I wish we could all see each other on a more frequent basis, but it's tough since I'm travelling all the time. I miss having fun with them like we used to and I really miss my nieces and nephews... all 9 of them! I try to take advantage of any chance I get to hang out with my family and keep them close to my heart.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

There are quite a few people I would love to meet for many different reasons. I think I will name the people and keep the reasons to myself!

Selma Hayek, Jennifer Garner, Marishka Hagritay, Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Shigeru Miyamoto, George Dubya'... well there are too many to name here, so I will stop with these few people.

I dont particularly want to meet these people because of their celebrity status; that really isn't a concern to me at all.
