Here, I will share general life stuff. Work, family, and stuff like that. It might be exciting. It might be mundane. But if I want to get it off my chest, it will be here. Dive in and enjoy the ride!
A New Adventure
Thirty-one years ago a friend and I embarked on a journey that would change our lives. The decision to do this didn’t come easy, however. When my buddy first asked me to go west with him, I was still dating my girlfriend at the time, and really didn’t want to go anywhere. Both he and…
The Struggle is Real
Those that subscribe to my shenanigans know that new content is sparse. It isn’t that I don’t want to write more, however. Mostly it is due to my actual full time job and needing to pay the bills. But I also have other interests that compete for time, and this isn’t always on the top…
Separated at Birth (or, some incredible luck)
Back in high school, my friend Chad and I were nearly inseparable. We both played the trumpet and had other similar interests. We would hang out quite frequently. So much so that the joke of us being twins separated at birth developed. Never mind the fact that we looked nothing at all alike, not even…
Let’s take a walk in the Cemetery
During warmer months, I take a morning walk in the cemetery behind my house. Sometimes, I’ll take a shorter walk in the afternoon, too. The red arrows below denote my perimeter path.

The night i almost died – or how not to find out you have tree nut allergy
Most of this tale will be told second hand. Not only was I quite young, 3 years old at the time, but after a certain point of the story, I really don’t remember anything. It might have been a holiday. I’m not sure. I say this because of the number of family members that were…
Family time!
I am the first born and oldest of my first cousins. I have one sister that is three years younger than me, almost to the day. But we’ll get into that later. For the most part, my sister and I had it okay growing up. But our experiences within the same family couldn’t be more…
Work, work, work…
When I got hired for the position I am currently in, I was an assistant manager in the main store of a group of corporate owned locations. It was good, but I wanted a change desperately. So, this was ideal and actually fulfilled somewhat of a dream. Growing up, my parents had various friends and…
