Sports (primarily tennis, but college hoops is great and who can't love college football (BCS is kind of screwy but whatever) and NFL is cool (good excuse to party on Sundays). I also want to learn to play guitar and cook on a gourmet level. Art & culture is great, but when it comes down to it a rainy day with a dvd works fine for me. Basically right now I am traveling a lot for my job and I am really enjoying it but I definitely miss home while I am gone. Work is about all I have time for except a quick trip to see friends in Charlotte or somewhere else not too far from here.
There are actually two people I would really like to meet: the first is Andre Agassi, professional tennis player and longtime childhood hero who has done so much good in a short time that it is one of the biggest inspirations of my life. The second is Joel Osteen, Pastor of Lakewood Church in Houston, TX. His writings & messages focused my efforts on applying God's message to life in a practical & everyday existence. He (along with a few others) pretty much showed me how to believe!
