About me: He is not famous, it may be that when his life at last comes to an end, he will leave no more trace of his soldier on this earth, than a stone thrown into a river leaves on the surface of the water. Yet it may be that the way of life that he has chosen for himself, may have ever grey influence over his fellow man so that, long after his death perhaps, it may be realized that there lived in this age a very remarkable creature.
Who I'd like to meet: People that make me smile; people that make me laugh; people that make me pay attention; people that make me think, create, inspire.
Hello, would you like to buy a ticket for a Chicken Dinner? It is like Harlen's BBQ but better...lol. The proceeds from the dinner go to support CASA/GAL. The people involved are everyday heroes to child who are in the system and been declared Abused, neglected and dependent. Please think about it and let me know. It is a delicious meal and you will be supporting a great cause!!!
Soooo...what'd you think of the Get Up Kids? And how did Brandi's tattoo session go? Hope everything went good. Ben was in the lot still when you came in according to Jeff but he didn't see you so I'll give him crap about it when I see him after work. Lol.
