I am hardworking, spontaneous, and easy going.
My Self-Summary
Oh, what to put here... this is, after all, my 'bait'... hmmmm...
Well I am an electrician, like to
travel and do different things, spend as
much time as possible with my kids (2 boys...) and try to remember
to keep the sunny side up. I am a
pilot and enjoy
flying but dont get to do it as much as I
would like... Just mostly to Seattle for
Seahawks games and picking up parts for
work. I like being on the water... but my boat has been in dry-dock
for a year now... I have a pile of parts that one day will be a
1929 Ford Model A Sedan Delivery Rat Rod... I think mostly I am
trying to get caught up on life (along with everything else....)
BUT dont get the impression that I never finish what I start (seems
easy to get that impression reading this I know..) I just have a
lot of things going!
What I’m doing with my life
Finish all the projects I have started for myself. Trying to divide
my time between my stuff, my business, and my boys... They are a
bit young to be included in everything, but I suspect we are going
to have a blast in the years to come.
I am also trying to figure out a life-plan that is going to get me
out to see the world, as I am not doing so well yet on that
subject. But my brand of travel is to show up with a bag and a
hotel room for the first night and see where the wind blows me. So
I think it is funny that I want a plan to go to
Europe or wherever and spend 3-4
weeks with no plan.... I know I dont get me either...
I’m really good at
Problem solving, or troubleshooting I guess... I think that comes
from the ability to think logically and methodicially. Sometimes
you find the answer to the question you are trying to solve based
on what you do not know and not what you know, if that makes any
sense.
Which makes me good at helping others with their issues and
problems, but probably not suited to help myself!! Well, maybe a
little...
The first things people usually notice about me
I dont really know... I would have to ask them...
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
Read
travel books
mostly, as I havent had time to do much real traveling. I will get
on a kick and read
history textbooks... And thank you I
dont have any problems sleeping at night (now that you know my cure
for insomnia...)
I like all kinds of movies, mostly ones with a point that make you
think about it long after they are over. Horror movies are okay I
guess... perhaps just not my thing. I guess anything from the
Shawshank Redemption to The Last Tango in Paris...
I like all music from 90's gangsta rap to Credence to Bach... I do
seem to find myself mostly listening to Reckless Kelly and Rob
Thomas recently (I think for the most part it is Reckless Kelly,
and Rob Thomas comes next on my ipod and I dont realize it until 10
songs in...)
Food, well I dont like seafood, but everything else I am open to...
EXCEPT for whiskey and Garlic Fries at Qwest Field during football
games... NEVER AGAIN!!! Yep I admit it, peer pressure is alive and
well, even in my thirties! haha!
The six things I could never do without
This is a hard one to answer, cause if you say 'oh my phone' you're
being shallow or if you say 'my kids' then you are just self
righteous and are in a way putting down the shallow people... So
here is to not winning...
1: My kids and family
2: My Friends
3: The ability to make a living
4: The ability to travel
5: My airplane and pilots license
6: My Mac and iPhone
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Traveling... and what a jerk Rick Steves is for getting paid to
travel the world and make money doing it.... hehe
Seriously, got a map of the world framed in my office with very few
pins in it... and I am going to be hell bent on changing that in
the near future.
I think about how the world has gone so wrong and how I would fix
it if I were king for a day (well my official official plan
actually takes about 6 months to implement.... so more than a day
is required!)
And thinking about random crap that I am either unqualified for or
stuff that has no bearing on my life directly (like which nuclear
reactor design is better (for details on my answer ask me about my
6 month plan mentioned above) clear down to how much wood could a
wood chuck chuck if a wood chuck could chuck wood....)
On a typical Friday night I am
Lately, on my computer well, ummm, working.... hehe
Hanging out with my kids... They are only this young once... you
gotta pay attention now because tomorrow they are going to be
pouring water in the vodka bottles and stealing the car keys...
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
Not now... maybe later.
You should message me if
You have a sense of humor... You will need it after a conversation
with me!!
