About Me

People tell me that I'm funny, but I don't believe them... I've been a musician for most of my life. I am proficient on the guitar, bass guitar, piano, drums...even the trumpet if you pay me enough. I've even been known to belt out a few tunes at karaoke, as well. I've been in a few bands over the past couple of years, but presently I am taking a bit of a "musical hiatus". Sometimes being in a band seems to cause more pain than pleasure.
I'm really quite shy, though. I don't say much to people when I first meet them because I have the fear of saying something extraordinarily stupid, therefore marring my first impression on that person forever...Once I get to know you I never shut up.
I have loved and lost. Sometimes it was my fault, sometimes not. I like to learn from my mistakes and use each experience, bad or good, to become a better person.

Anyway, that's me in a nutshell. Drop me a line if you have any questions, or if you know a good chiropractor.

I'd like to meet:

Rich, famous people that bitch about how horrible their lives are, and smack the ever-loving shit out of them.

Music:


Movies:

Oh, so many.... I laugh myself to convulsions whenever I see the "Airplane" movies. Yeah, they're mindless - but funny as hell... I cried the first time I saw "Titanic". And the second and third, too... "Poltergeist" still scares the crap out of me...I will never trust a clown again. Ever.

Television:

I can't get enough of The History Channel because I am a complete dork. I don't really have any shows that I watch on a regular basis.

Books:

Tale of Two Cities, anyting written by Edgar Allen Poe, the poetry of Stephen Crane and William Butler Yeats.

Heroes:

Every person who died on September 11, 2001, and those fighting now to make sure it never happens again.
