About Me


I love my wife. I'm all about family and relationships. I think the most valuable thing we posess is our ability to have relationships with each other. I respect honesty and people who aren't afraid to be themselves, because I know how hard that's been for me. I love music and movies. Books are great, too, but I've been too busy (that is to say, lazy) to read many lately. No, really, I love my wife. I wear brand name clothing. I really enjoy fighting, but not over anything in particular. I just like the act of physical, man-to-man combat. I jump out of airplanes and get paid for it. My favorite colors are black and blue, and that has nothing to do with my whole fighting thing. I want kids. I love Jesus, but I won't pressure you to love him if you don't want to. The NFL kicks ass, especially the Chargers (and Raiders, Lexie...). I miss San Diego. .

I miss home. I am really discouraged by the army. The people here drag me down spiritually and emotionally. My peers are dirtbags. Most of the soldiers here are alcoholics or have drug problems. Soldi...
