I am Loyal, Funny, and Intelligent.

My Self-Summary

Hiya! God I hate these. Well I'm a proud father of two beautiful little girls. They are the best part in my life. After three years at a state hospital, working at not a patient lol, I've gone back to school to become a high school teacher. I'll be transferring to main campus in the spring semester.

I can have a bit of a sarcastic streak, and my humor tends to drift towards the dark side. I guess you could say my sense of humor is similar to Randal from the Jersey chronicles.

I'm a nice guy that's loyal to my friends and loved ones. I may not always be able to provide sage advice on difficult situations, but I'm always be willing to listen to my friends' problems. Also, a forewarning, I'm a bit nerdy. Nerd pride represent!! lol I watch anime, still play video games (though not to a scary extreme), and I do play pin and paper RPGs.

If you have more questions, and they're not answered in the following blurbs, please ask.

What I’m doing with my life

Following my divorce, I've gone back to school. It took a while to figure out what I wanted to do when I grew up, but thanks to life and "Office Space," I finally figured it out. I'm now pursuing a degree in Secondary Education with a focus on history. Though I'm thinking about duel focusing in biology.

I’m really good at

being a dad. If I write anything else, I'll sound conceited. lol

The first things people usually notice about me

Ummm. What I look like, unless they're blind. lol I guess my sense of humor. I tend to lead off in new social situations with a joke, when the situation allows.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

Books:
I love to read. I like the Odd Thomas books by Koontz. I love fantasy novels. LotR, Dragonlance, Wheel of Time series, etc. I like Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles.

Movies:
I'm a big movie buff. Kevin Smith's The Jersey Chronicles , LotR, the Alien movies (especially Aliens), and the new Star Trek movie was NERDTASTIC I like horror movies alot. Zombies rock, be they infected with rage or walking the earth because hell has run out of room. And if a movie makes me think, it'll be a winner in my book, i.e. Memento. I also enjoy anime. Neon Genesis Evangalion is an awesome series, one of the best there ever has been.

Music:
I'll listen to just about anything. However, my preferred genre is alt rock, especially from the 90s. Pearl Jam, Nirvana, STP. I also like the nerd bands of the late 90s. Semisonic, Vervepipe, Cake. And I'm a big fan of Counting Crows. I also like hard rock. Korn, Disturbed, Saliva, older Marylin Manson (before he only did covers)

Food:
I'm adventurous when it comes to food. There are very few things that I won't try. Bugs being one of them. However, I love Japanese cuisine. And my very favorite singular food is steak.

The six things I could never do without

My Children, My Family, My Friends, The Internet, Hope, and Air

I spend a lot of time thinking about

About my future and what it holds.

On a typical Friday night I am

Hanging out at home, hopefully with friends. Not a whole lot to do in Alamo, and I'm not big into the bar scene.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

That I watch and enjoy Smallville.

You should message me if

you'd like to meet a nice guy who will stick next to you as long as the effort is returned.
