I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I have a busy life filled with work, great friends, and travel. When I am home, I spend a lot of time relaxing around my house (which I am in love with), seeing friends, and doing little renovation projects. I have a lifelong commitment to staying healthy and physically fit, but I'm not a gym rat. I try to get out and see live music whenever I am not feeling too burnt out on it. Life is short, so I try my best to enjoy it! Favorite restaurants include Il Localino, Dish, Noodle, and Silk. When I go out, I am either at a live performance venue (10 high, smith's olde bar, the loft) or at a place with some vibe and ambiance (apres diem, a place with a nice, relaxing deck if the weather is cooperative). My job is not the regular 9-5, so I play on weeknights and weekends :-)

Year of the Rich

Wow! I can't believe that this much time has passed since I've written. How time flies. It feels like so much has happened in the last six weeks. My birthday. The trip to Biloxi. The trip to LA. Two b...

Idle Hands...

Ever wonder what you would do if you had all the time in the world? I mean, what if you didn't have to work. If you didn't have any commitments taking up your time. What would you do? I've been off ...

Relapse - Bounceback

Thankfully, things have changed a lot since 7th grade. I was relatively sober when I left the party. I went to the 10 High and got rock star parking. As was walking downstairs into 10 High, I ran into...

Dreams and Nightmares

I had the most vivid, horrible dream last night. I dreamed that my dad died. Right there in front of me and it was like I could feel the life draining out of him. Actually, I think I had 2 versions of...
