Nothing out of the ordinary. Baseball, soccer, music... Going forward with my life, becoming my own person, and making the most out of every day and every experience. I'd like to become that bartender you go to and don't have explain anything, because I can read it from your face. I'm gettin there...
Yeah, by the way...If you ever see me out, you can make a lifelong friend by bringing me one of my buddies here:

I'm always looking to meet old friends, new friends, the rich and famous, the poor and obscure, and everyone in between.

Music:
I'm a music junkie. I seem destined to never leave the scene. However, I'm not confined to one genre/band/scene. Never have been, actually. Don't let the beard and sweater fool you...
My adolescence was filled with Pearl Jam, Led Zeppelin, Tool, Bob Dylan, Radiohead, Beck, and Deftones. And I hold these muscians close to my heart.
I met a girl who introduced me to Widespread Panic, however, I moved away shortly after that. With the Panic influence, it all clicked. I must have looked like a cartoon with a lightning bolt over my head... Suddenly, music made sense in a whole new way.
Now, I go see every type of band that my work schedule allows. Having a "weekend" from Monday to Thursday has helped. If you've got a show I should check out, certainly let me know.

Television:
24 is the only show that I've kept up with for the last 5 years. Fuck you! I like it!
I gave up on cable over two years ago, so now I'm confined to what my rabbit ears pick up: FOX, CBS, NBC, PBS, & WB
Books:
I learned to read at an early age, unfortunately it never became a hobby.
Heroes:
My Parents: 26+ years of marriage, 3 kids, god knows how many places we lived, and now look at 'em.... It's the best fairy tale ever conceived. I hope I can be so lucky.
My sister, Amanda: In and out in four years at Indiana University. Now working for a very respectable company and living the good life in downtown Indy.
And Da Bug: She's learning from her older siblings mistakes (I hope) and will outshine both of us! I was a damn good soccer player, Amanda was better, and I think Allison is the best of us all. She's a sophomore in high school with a mission! Much love!
