About Me

The north wind produces rain, and a backbiting tongue, angry looks. -Proverbs 25:23

My Interests



Seeing concerts, playing the drums, long distance running, writing, going to the symphony, cooking swiss chicken for friends, saltwater and freshwater aquariums, andes mints, horseback riding, teaching music, biology, reading, perfecting the art of the grilled cheese.

I'd like to meet:

Maybe in five or ten yours and mine will meet again
Straighten this whole thing out
Maybe then honesty need not be feared as a friend or an enemy
But this is the distance
And this is my gameface.

I thank my God every time I remember you, constantly praying with joy in every one of my prayers for all of you, because of your sharing in the gospel from the first day until now. -Philippians 1:3-5
