Stop by and say hi sometime.

About Me

Oi, time to change this section. But what to say.... I am a native Virginian, but the rest of my family is from western NC. The medical field has seemed to be a part of my life since I was a little kid playing doctor, LOL. Spent a number of years in EMS as a Paramedic but got tired of carrying people down 3 flights of steps. Overall, guess I'm just an average Joe. It's pretty much me and my dog (Alexei). We keep tabs on my parents who are starting to get limited in what they can do. I love to travel and am a bit of a Brit fanatic. I would move to London or Scotland tomorrow if I could. Sucks being from an infamous Scottish Clan. I get worried every time I walk into a McDonalds if that gives you a hint to which clan. Would like to meet that one person that's supposed to be out there for each of us. Starting to think that will never happen. Please, if you accept my friend request be someone who really talks every now and then. Anything else, just ask. Cheers mate.

My Interests

Travel, if you haven't figured that out yet. My dog, Alexei Kodeevich, an Alaskan Malamute who is now a little over 3 years old. I want to win the big lotter and buy a flat overlooking Hyde Park.
