I work a lot of hours and sometimes travel instate for work. I get to play with dirt for a living though my passion is for the ocean. I have held many good jobs and never burnt a bridge. I am former sailor both military and professional, UPS driver, short order cook, parts counterman, service manager, warranty clerk, professional Boy Scout, and dishwasher. Oh and there was that one time I was a ferry mate.

I have lived in Florida, Georgia, Virginia, Texas, and now back home in North Carolina. I grew up at Wilmington and the beaches. I left my parents house at the age of 15 1/2 and rolled on. My first residence was an apartment at Carolina Beach.

I attended Wake Tech but am just shy of finishing two associate degrees. I stopped just after getting married 7 years ago and now debating when to finish the journey

Moving on and up! I found that I used to put someone else first and now I am enjoying the freedom of changing some things. I bought my first boat back in November to fish offshore. It was on my list for awhile. Redoing the house one room at a time. Trying to relearn the things that make me happy.

Having to think on this one...

People have told me it is my green eyes. You let me know and i will update this!

I don't read many books unless I am researching. I find that most anything can be found on the web if you know how to look for it.

I turned off the cable back in May because it was ridiculous to pay Time Warner 200.00 a month and life was too busy to sit in front of the TV. Several months ago I hooked up the antenna to the TV and a week latter got into netflics. War, crime, horror, I guess I watch a little of everything especially if it has pirates, knights, or about big man eating sharks.

Music tends to be country and 96 rock. A friend linked to the Civil Wars of which I had never heard, I really liked them. I still have a stack of alternative CDs around here from when I was in High School. On Sunday nights when the weather is little warmer, I find myself listening to the bluegrass special while working in the shop. Must be because I was raised at the beach, I still enjoy Bob Marley and UB40.

I think of myself as not being picky about food but some things you just have to draw the line: Steamed oysters from the gulf(really, we live in NC and didn't have a huge oil spill!), celery(I just cant get past the texture.), smart ones (the box it came in tastes better.), diet soda, dark German beer, ...

Where I am and where I want to be in the future. As a driver at UPS they taught you to be aware of three blocks ahead. I am applying it to my life.

Since being new to the single life this is an area I have been working on. As of late I have been working on the house, boat, or just the weekly chores to free up my weekend. Have ventured to some cook outs, pig pickins and my first Wolfpack football game. Yes they did lose to Georgia Tech. I used to enjoy going to movies, trips to the beach, cooking a meal for two, game of darts in a local pub, or enjoying a show on the tube with someone else.

I enjoy hunting and shooting guns. At one time I was an instructor for the Boy Scouts teaching rifle and shotgun classes. Last summer I bought an automatic skeet thrower. I am always looking for a place to take it. I have become a horrible shot and need to practice but was a very good teacher in the past.

If I told you it wouldn't be private but I will give you this one; I am horrible with names. I read a book twenty plus years ago that described how to sharpen your memory of such things. I stopped using the methods and slowly forgotten them. It is one of a handful things I endeavor to change about myself.

You should message me if you see an intrest or want to know more.

You should NOT messege me if you are attending AA or any other cult, have green hair constantly, hate dogs, or hate hunters.
