My mother, first and foremost; the strongest, most courageous woman on the face of the earth. Don Mattingly, my dog Sumi (who I miss terribly), Mr. Dixon from Quakertown High School (I hope I can be half the teacher that he is), my family, my friends who are each fearlessly carving their own paths in the world, Meg for inspiring me every single day, and myself for finally getting the ball rolling on my own life.

About me: I'm 28 year old student @ Kutztown University. I also work full-time overnights @ KidsPeace in Orefield, PA; specifically I work in a residential treatment facility for troubled teenagers. I'm finding a lot to love about my life, school is going well, work is fabulous (other than working friday & saturday nights), my friends & family are well and I have been blessed with the most amazing, wonderful and special relationship that I could ever imagine. I've spent a lot of time feeling sorry for myself & blaming others for my own flaws over the years; it feels great to finally have a grip on life and to be pressing forward in a positive direction with real goals in front of me. I may be a little bit complicated, but half of the fun in life is dealing with whatever is thrown in your path; now that I've found my beautiful "one", there isn't anything that can ever come between me & the happiness I strive for. Life is truly what you decide to make of it!
You could have said double the age I was when I was 15, but nooooooooooo-o! You decided to say half-way to 60!!
Actually, it feels good to be out of my 20s! I don't mind being 30 at all! When I turned 28 that was a different story...that bothered me immensely. Don't ask me why, 'cause I don't know...it just did!
What up cous! Us country people finally got our internet back! YAY! There was a major drug bust and the redneck helicopters flew right into the cable companies satilite yard! Can you beleive that it's an everyday thing to see plants the size of skyscrapers down here? Joe, it's a jungle down here. Literally. How are you?
Glad to hear things are kicking ass for you out there. Everything's good here...crazy busy at work, but that's a good thing. My niece is 9 months old now, so that's pretty insane. You need to get yourself out to the desert for a visit man.
I wish that I could have sent a nice birthday card, but due to the fact that down here in Kentucky, the only store was burnt to a crisp! Yeah, that's right, a pregnant cow tipped over a gas can that was placed two feet from the back door. Then some ignorant hick walked up, smelt the fumes, and didn't think twice about throwing his hand roled wacky tabacky on the ground. I miss that store! Now all us kentuckians have to go 100 miles to the closest store. IT SUCKS!! And what really blows is that my car now has a flat because of weird cow patties that are growing spikes. So like me and everyone else that doesn't stock up for natural desasters are screwed. So you think you could fed-x me some toilet paper? If not, I understand. Anyways, I wish you a Happy Birthday!
in retort to your extensive analasys of my lack of musical selection, along with your artistic interperetation of my "suck" factor- I shall say only this: blow me, squirrel fucker.
you don't want to use a circular saw to dismember a body. the best thing to use is a reciprocating saw or an axe/ hatchet. circular saws get bound up on the bone, and can jump back when you least expect it. don't want to leave any of your own dna on the scene. but you can borrow my circular saw if you need to.
